The Bega Valley Regional Gallery, situated in the South East corner of New South Wales, serves as a hub for Australian contemporary visual culture. Located midway between Sydney and Melbourne, with a three-hour drive from Canberra, the gallery aims to showcase excellence in artistic expression. Supported by funding from the Bega Valley Shire Council and the NSW Government through Create NSW, it collaborates with institutions like the Four Winds Festival and South East Arts to offer diverse artistic and educational programs.
Housed in one of the area's oldest buildings, the museum delves into the rich history of the Bega Valley and its surroundings from the early 1800s to the present day. Managed by the Bega Valley Historical Society, the museum features a wide-ranging collection encompassing military, domestic, transport, and working equipment, along with an extensive photographic and newspaper archive. Open on select days, the museum provides a valuable research facility for history enthusiasts keen on exploring the local heritage.
