Galleries, Museums and Collections

Gallery of Small Things is Australia’s smallest gallery, showcasing emerging and established artists in the Visual Arts. It’s less than six metres square and brings international, interstate and local artists to a Canberra backyard. The Gallery, affectionally known as GOST, is about makers and designers who love texture, form and small.

Visitors will see a new exhibition program of solo, duo and group shows which feature artworks in ceramics, jewellery, mixed media, paintings, photography, print media and textiles. In 2026, there are six exhibitions to visit in person and online. Visit the website for more information on dates, times, and who’s coming to show in the special exhibitions space.

The shop is available to visit online 24/7. When shows are on, in-person visitors can see selected artworks that are perfect to gift, take on the plane, interstate/overseas, or to keep.

The founder/director and ceramic artist, Anne Masters, is keen to promote/provide emerging artists with an excellent stepping-stone to showcase works alongside those of established artists in an intimate and supportive space. She also offers professional practice workshops for visual artists and art organisations.

GOST is a hidden, award-winning tourist gem and allows visitors to experience art in the suburbs. With an artist’s studio next door and cottage gardens, it’s a place for people to unplug from life’s complexities and enjoy the smallest of beautiful simplicities.
