Eden and the Willow

Eden and the Willow is a new gallery for contemporary art located in Newtown, Sydney, having opened in September 2020.

The galleries intention is to create a space that offers the usual refuge of an art gallery, and also a place where micro-events, such as an impromptu encounter that yields a meaningful exchange with a stranger, become possible.

It is envisioned that Eden and the Willow will develop as a curated cross-platform hosting exhibitions for emerging and established artists from across different disciplines, including performance and design.

Eden and the Willow is committed to being a part, and a catalyst for creative exploration and engagement.
