The Leo Kelly Blacktown Arts Centre
An innovative multi-arts hub in the heart of Blacktown City.

Yanmannyang mudayi Dharug Ngurrawa. Walama ngyini budbud dali Dharug Ngurra Dharug yiyura baranyiin barribugu.
We acknowledge the Traditional Custodians of this Land, the Dharug people, and their continued connection to Country.
We pay our respects to Elders from yesterday to tomorrow.
We extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples of Blacktown City where the flannel flowers still grow proud and strong.
We will walk softly on this land and open our hearts to Country as the Dharug people have for tens of thousands of years.
We are inviting Blacktown locals to help us create a virtual wall of isolation portraits shared online called the Isolation Selfie Chain.
If you are from the Blacktown area or have attended our workshops before, please request to join the Facebook group
To be a part of the chain, draw or paint a self-portrait, take a photo of it, post it to the ‘Blacktown Arts open studio’ group and tag two others to continue the chain.
