Schmick Contemporary is an independent artist-run initiative located on Level 2, 706 George Street in Chinatown on unceded Gadigal Land.
Schmick is a not-for-profit, inclusive space where artists are encouraged to experiment and take risks that may sit outside the expectations and limitations of traditional and commercial art institutions. Schmick aims to facilitate discourse through the growth of community-led exhibitions by artists and peers. Schmick Contemporary was founded in 2021 by Carolyn Craig and Damian Dillon.

Physical Accessibility

Sensory Accessibility
Visitors with sensory sensitivities may wish to be aware that Schmick Contemporary can involve potentially overwhelming sensory experiences. The building is often loud and is located on a very busy main street. During opening nights and other events, the gallery can become warm, crowded, and noisy.
Schmick Contemporary acknowledges the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation upon whose unceded lands we live and work.
We pay our respects to elders past, present and emerging.
