A beautifully sited gallery with several galleries of special exhibitions, with the highlight being the Olley artwork and re-creation of her home-studio. With the video and hands-on experiences it is totally inspiring as you become immersed in the artist's work and life. Friendly informed staff and volunteers enrich the experience....a "must stop" visit.

John Murray Art Gallery

The colour and humour of life in the bush jumps out of the work with the whimsy and realism that sets John Murrays artwork apart from the pack. No visit to Lightning Ridge is complete without some time spent in the John Murray Art Gallery. Established in 1992 by creative duo John and Viki Murray to showcase John’s vibrant original acrylic paintings, the Gallery has since grown to include quality reproductions ranging from canvas prints and mounts to postcards and stubby coolers. The world-class gallery has retained its rustic roots and Australia’s leading outback artist continues to lure people from all over the country to see his endearing work first hand. Having lived on the opal fields for many years, Viki Murray has truly captured the personality of Lightning Ridge in her own unique photographic style. Whilst the Ridge is where she makes her bed, Viki is a sucker for a project where she has the opportunity to travel. This is why you’ll see a vast array of incredible photographs from India, Vietnam, Bali and coastal Australia mixed in with her bush photography. Viki likes to change her mediums as often as she does her subjects, you’ll be treated with rustic wooden prints, classic canvas and the sharp vibrancy aluminum prints bring to the table. From prints to books and cards, her works are quirky, eclectic, rustic and retro all rolled into one. Art that makes you smile.

John Murray’s artwork helps define what makes Lightning Ridge so special. It is definitely worth visiting his iconic gallery. The art on display is colourful and brilliantly captures the spirit of Lightning Ridge and surrounding districts. Most of the artworks are for sale and many other related items such as prints, posters, mugs, bags can be purchased.

Located in the historical village of Morpeth in the Lower Hunter Valley, Morpeth Gallery has an excellent selection of fine traditional Australian landscape & wildlife art by internationally and nationally acclaimed artists. The gallery specialises in investment art with pieces which appreciate over time. The gallery opened in 1991 as a part of the Campbell's Store Craft Centre complex.

Morpeth has a number of very interesting places to visit and wander through both on the Main Street and in the little laneways. This gallery is one of those side excursions that will reward your time with a number of experiences. There is something for just about everyone including artworks, toys and local foods. I was impressed with the ginger beer tastings and left with a number of bottles.

It is rare to find an art gallery that has numerous pieces that I love. And our friends felt exactly the same. Alex, the owner, has an incredible eye for quality. He is clearly passionate about the pieces in his gallery, has a mountain of knowledge, and happens to be one of the nicest people you are likely ever to meet! Located in the arts and industrial estate. Treat yourself.
