We acknowledge the Ngunnawal People, the traditional custodians of the land on which we work, create, and grow. We pay our respects to the elders past, present, and emerging, for they hold the memories, the traditions, and the culture of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people across the nation.

Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.

Q Gallery is a local hub for creative and wellness enthusiasts alike to host, discover, connect, and inspire.

We provide local artists an affordable and exciting opportunity to exhibit their work in the heart of Ainslie, one of Canberra's most art-centric suburbs.

By fostering an environment that nurtures creativity and connection, we at Q Gallery invite everyone to be part of a dynamic community dedicated to artistic growth and cultural expression.

UPCOMING EVENTS

SOPHIE RYAN - HORIZONS

17 April to 2 May, 2026

Horizons is about the in-between — transformation and opportunity. The kind of opportunity that a bright, bold sky holds as the sun sets and the sky meets country. Sophie is inspired by the smell in the air as autumn begins to whisper, the intricacies of light as it shifts through clouds, the roads that lead her home, and the wind through the trees causing the leaves to dance. For her, everything holds the potential for inspiration when approached with openness.
Stockroom Show: Indigenous Art

Join us from 3 to 6 May for a selection of outstanding Indigenous works of art from our stockroom. Discover original paintings from Central Australia and beyond.
