Slag Heap Projects acknowledges the Wilyakali and Barkindji people, the traditional custodians of the lands, waters and skies within which our gallery and programs operate. We recognise that connection to culture and community is strong, and sovereignty has never been ceded.

Through our gallery and off-site programs, Slag Heap Projects’ advocates for Far West NSW artists by facilitating experimentation, place-based research and commercial engagement. Slag Heap Projects wants to understand increasingly complex cultural frictions by creating a space where art is a tool for inquiry.

We’re so excited to announce a huge second year of programs at Slag Heap Projects. Selected by a group of community members from our first open call out, we’re working with incredible artists from across NSW, SA and VIC - from Wilyakali and Barkandji/Barkindji Country to Peramangk Yarta to Bundjalung Country. Throughout 2025, we’ll present five exhibitions, a festival and three special projects engaging with public space.
