A new commercial art gallery, Nissarana Galleries Bangalow, has opened in the former newsagency space on the main street of Bangalow, a town in New South Wales, Australia. The gallery is the third location for the Nissarana Galleries network, joining existing spaces in Noosa and Richmond, Melbourne, and showcases contemporary and Indigenous artists.
The opening signifies the continued growth of Bangalow as a regional art destination, complementing existing galleries like Nimbella. The gallery's diverse price range and its philanthropic model, which directs a portion of profits to support a primary school in India, reflect a blend of commercial and community-focused art world engagement typical of many regional galleries.
