Galleries, Museums and Collections

Sheffield Art Gallery is the primary gallery operated by Working Art Space Sheffield (WASS) The gallery is located inside the Sheffield Arts Centre building at 6 Pioneer Crescent in the famous northwest Tasmanian town of Sheffield. Sheffield is known as the Town of Murals and is also often referred to as “Tasmania’s Outdoor Art Gallery”.

It is understandably both a magnet and a hub for local artists. The gallery is situated close to the Sheffield Visitor Information Centre at 5 Pioneer Crescent. In this gallery, you will find a wide variety of arts and crafts created by local artists. These works include paintings, photography, jewellery, textiles, sculptures and a variety of other hand-crafted works of art.

Entry is free and the items on display are available for purchase. Pick up a Mosaic Pathway brochure from the Information centre or the Pioneer Gallery and stroll along the pathway which crosses historic King George V Park to the Working Art Space workshop operated by Working Art Space Sheffield.

The mosaic pathway begins behind the main car park in town and winds its way through the park to the Working Art Space.
