The Shed

This art gallery in Broken Hill is a testament to cross-cultural collaboration, showcasing the talents of established artist Dirk Romeyn, who relocated from the Blue Mountains, alongside local Indigenous artist Brian Harris, a proud Barkandji man. The gallery, known as The Shed, maintains its charming aesthetic through the creative use of reclaimed and recycled materials. One of its standout features is a large public art mural created by Dirk, contributing to the growing collection of murals in Broken Hill, the first city in Australia to be heritage-listed. Visitors to The Shed will find a diverse array of artwork, including an impressive selection of paintings, drawings, prints, and woodwork. Handcrafted earrings, gift cards, and mugs also feature, alongside Indigenous artworks such as carved emu eggs, didgeridoos, boomerangs, sculptures, carved bowls, and clap sticks. The gallery's front sitting area offers views of Sturt Park, providing a welcoming place for visitors to unwind with an old-fashioned cuppa, for a gold coin donation. This unique blend of art, culture, and hospitality makes The Shed a must-visit destination in Broken Hill.
