The Henderson: Gallery; Cafe; Arts; Education; Events.
Artist Robert Henderson is the owner and principal artist at The Henderson. We welcome our local and overseas visitors and invite you to experience our ambience, hospitality, service and delicious specialty coffee and light meals. We produce and exhibit collectable art from contemporary First Nations artists, prison art as well as works from both established and emerging artists.
The Henderson was opened by QLD Deputy Premier Jackie Trad on 16/07/16. The gallery is artists for artists, 100% Wiradjuri, First Nations owned and we are self funded, operating within an empathic, self-determinate model of enterprise. As such we rely on sales of product and fee for service to fund our venture. We offer our attitude, example, standards, mindset, strategies, values, vision to our cohort, supporters and greater community. Our predominant focus is to support, promote, manage, exhibit, develop, advocate on behalf of, educate and mentor artists and audiences who would otherwise not have the opportunity. We are specifically focused on working with First Nations artists, artists who are, or who were prisoners, first time exhibitors, and a diverse cohort of First Nations and non First nations artists outside of these demographics, at local, state and international levels, whose work we love and for whom we want success.
