Central Coast Council’s gallery container at the Toukley Village Green provides an innovative space which hosts a rotating roster of local creatives to exhibit work and installations, present workshops and collaborate with other artists throughout the year.
Council Director Community and Recreation Services Melanie Smith said the innovative and creative program fostered multiple benefits for the community.
“Our Creative Spaces program aims to support local makers and creators and local businesses by attracting visitors to Toukley town centre,” she said.
“This program, which follows a successful 2023-24 program, has a proven ability to activate and create a vibrant space for the local community and visitors to connect and experience local culture, whilst supporting local businesses.
Now exhibiting until September 27 is Grace Agnes Art (Grace Vuetaki).
Vuetaki is obsessed with creativity and sharing this love with visitors to the Toukley Village Green.

Council Administrator Rik Hart said the Central Coast was home to some of NSW’s top creatives, from sculptors to painters, furniture makers, ceramicists, weavers and textile designers.
“The contemporary program has proven to be important in developing and supporting talented people working in creative industries across the Central Coast,” he said.
“Creative Spaces add vibrancy, contribute positively to cultural life and increase visitation to Toukley’s Village Green for the benefit of the local economy.”
