This spacious gallery in a converted factory tucked away in the unassuming Chippendale neighbourhood, displays only a small part of the collection of contemporary Chinese art amassed by philanthropic art patron Judith Neilson. Run as a self-funded non-profit, it is free to the public and also features a popular tearoom on site. Plans are afoot to move the collection to a purpose-built arts centre in close proximity to the current location.
