Both of the council-owned galleries feature a rotating exhibition program curated by local art groups, including Lighthouse Regional Arts (LRA), Outer Cove Creative Inc (OCCI), and the Council.
Within The Watch House, you'll discover a dedicated gallery space that offers a distinct experience apart from the venue's broader historical and cultural exhibits. While The Watch House delves into local history, the gallery shines a spotlight on Tasmanian art and crafts, all within a uniquely historical setting.
