Cairns Regional Gallery

Cnr Abbott & Shields Sts Cairns

Cairns Regional Gallery was established in Tropical North Queensland to foster a greater understanding of history, heritage and culture through visual arts and crafts of the region. Opened in 1995, the Gallery is housed in a heritage-listed State Government building which also provides an insight into the history of Cairns.

For 15 years, the Gallery has documented and presented history, heritage and contemporary culture of the distinctive region of Australia through visual arts, crafts and design.

The Gallery initiates and presents a diverse challenging and stimulating exhibitions program featuring works by local, national and international artists, with up to 30 exhibitions of regional, national and international works of art on display each year.

These exhibitions provide local residents and visitors to the region with a unique insight into Australia and tropical North Queensland’s art, history and culture. In addition, the experience is enriched by the opportunity to participate in public programs which offer educational and enjoyable experiences such as artist talks, workshops, guided tours, and social events.

Join Friends of Cairns Regional Gallery - a dynamic and generous membership program for local and regional residents interested in visual arts.
