Want to discover the best of Sydney’s contemporary and underground art scene? It’s all just around the corner in the laneways of creative Chippendale, where designer chic meets warehouse cool.
The Chippendale Creative Precinct (CCP) is a non-profit organisation established in 2010, founded to promote Chippendale as a creative cluster and cultural hub. CCP is bringing Chippendale into the new era, the new economy and the new world, through initiatives designed to enhance the synergy of the local creative community, generate economic growth and provide inspiration through the arts in an urban environment.
Reclaimed from the industrial grinder, Chippendale jives in savvy dialogue between its rich historical heritage and urban contemporary street-chic. Graffiti and cobblestones collide in the laneways that house Sydney’s most exciting creative spaces and artist run studios.
Top 20 galleries of Chippendale include:
Wellington Street Projects, Carlton St Project Space, Harrington Street Gallery, MOP Projects, Spot 81, Pine Street Gallery, The Japan Foundation, UTS Gallery, White Rabbit Gallery, Galerie pompom, The Corner Cooperative, X88 Gallery, ArtSHINE Art Gallery, Kensington Contemporary, Platform 72, NG Art Gallery, Verge Gallery, The Commercial, CHASM, AMBUSH Gallery and GOODSPACE.
Home to the $2 billion Central Park redevelopment, Sydney’s incredible ‘living mall’, and latest heritage laneway, Kensington Street – soon to reopen – Chippendale has exciting new gallery and pop-up art spaces, bespoke retailers, delicious eateries, small bars, and on-trend pub fare.
The annual ‘BEAMS Arts Festival’, Sydney’s favourite block party and festival of creative ideas, takes Chippendale in one bright night of light, colour and sound, with live art, music and performances on Saturday September 19.
The Chippendale Creative Precinct hosts ‘Explore Chippendale: Free Gallery walking Tours’ – taking you to what’s new in Chippendale on the first Saturday of every month!
