A lovely venue to attend an event, visit a new show, take a tour or just catch up for a coffee or a drink in their new art bar.

24th Dobell Drawing prize was on exhibition for free at NAS Gallery. Winner was Rosemary Lee. Nice space featuring local artists. Loved it!

A very informative tour organised by the HHT took us inside all the buildings and a view of the archives as well as a fascinating history of the buildings and of all its past avatars before it became the NAS in 2005.
