Balmain has a long-held association with the arts scene, with many artists calling the area home and an exciting calendar of creative and cultural events taking place across our many interesting spaces.
Whether you’re a dedicated arts fanatic or a casual culture buff, the 2024 Biennale of Sydney will inspire and provoke, with the repurposed heritage-listed White Bay Power Station taking centre stage this year. We had the pleasure of witnessing the rebirth of this iconic early 20th century relic as it opened its doors to the public for the first time in over a century. Titled Ten Thousand Suns, this extraordinary, free extravaganza showcases the visionary creations of leading artists from around the world. Open daily until June 10, Ten Thousand Suns breathes new life into this architectural landmark, transforming it into a canvas for contemporary expression. And, if you’re looking to add some drama to your evening, Art After Dark every Wednesday gives you until 9pm to see the exhibition.
