Our place, our community
The Launceston Art Centre is not just a retail outlet - it is an inspired experience where people can find so much more than just art supplies. By engaging with the team at Launceston Art Centre - be it in the physical shop, our website, or through social channels - you will find support, advice, inspiration, and like-minded people who share your passions.
Our passion for art, combined with our expertise and friendly natures, has resulted in us building a community of engaged and loyal customers – from students, parents and amateur artists and model-makers, to professional artists and teachers. Indeed, many of our customers are now considered friends - all part of an inspired and creative community that revolves around the Launceston Art Centre as a hub.
We love art, and we love our community. Below are just a few upcoming shows you may be interested in.
