Ngununggula Regional Gallery

Ngununggula was established in collaboration with the State Government, the National Trust (NSW), Wingecarribee Shire Council, and donors. Constructed by Richard Crookes Constructions, Ngununggula boasts a heritage-sensitive, state-of-the-art gallery, an education space, and an entry pavilion designed by Brian Zulaikha and Colebee Wright of Studio ZAWA while working at Tonkin Zulaikha Greer Architects.

Ngununggula is a registered not-for-profit organisation proudly funded by the Council, state government grants, and donations from private citizens. The gallery is situated on the historic grounds of Retford Park, a property owned by the National Trust (NSW), an important community-based non-government organisation.

Retford Park was donated to the Trust in 2016 by the late James Fairfax AC, a well-known champion of the arts and generous philanthropist who believed that Retford Park should be preserved for the enjoyment and benefit of future generations. To learn more about the history of Retford Park, please visit the James Fairfax Foundation.
