New England Contemporary Print Gallery
153 Beardy Street, Armidale NSW 2350 0487184059 @necprintgallery
NECPG is an exhibition, workshop and studio space dedicated to printmaking in its many forms. We aim to provide printmakers and collectors with exciting opportunities and to make a strong contribution to the cultural life of New England.
Gallery open Wednesday - Friday 11-4,
Saturdays & Sundays 10-2
Submissions no longer being accepted.
Sadly, Dreams of the Sea is the last exhibition necpg will hold in the current space. The building is no longer suitable to house valuable original art and the effort we are making to protect the work is unsustainable. As we are unable to renovate, we will vacate by the end of May and all unsold art will be returned to artists. We are still open for business at the moment and continuing to enjoy strong print sales. We are sorry to close our doors, and will be searching for a new venue in the spring.
In two years we will have held 13 shows with 56 artists from around Australia, as well as 19 printmaking workshops plus linocut classes and studio print days. It's been a blast!
If we find a new space we will let you know...

Q: How do I get framed work to you?
A: Art courier, Australia Post, hand delivery - our artists use a variety of methods. It is also possible to arrange local framing and send your unframed prints to the framer in Armidale. Make sure you talk to them first! Artists are responsible for all costs associated with delievery of work.
Q:What happens if my work doesn't sell?
A: By arrangement with artists we send unsold work back the week following the exhibition close, or we keep it in the stockroom to give it more chance to sell.
Q. Do you refund the cost of packaging for prints in the same way as framing?
A: No.
Q: My work needs special hanging. Is that OK?
A: Talk to us! We are pretty flexible....
Q: I forgot to photograph my work before I framed it. Is a photo behind glass OK?
A: It probably won't do you any favours, and we can't use it to promote your work.
Q: If my submission is successful, will I get my name on the poster?
A: Marketing materials are created before submissions close, so probably not, but your work will be displayed in the exhibition.
