Incorporating public seating and lighting, the Art Seat is also a landmark meeting point in Newtown.

The Newtown ArtSeat is an initiative of Inner West Council, with support from Arts NSW and City of Sydney.

Council’s Chrissie Cotter Gallery is a free gallery space available to emerging and established Inner West artists.
