Look Magazine: A Digital Art Guide to Darlinghurst

Look Magazine: A Digital Art Guide to Darlinghurst

It is NAS’ pleasure to feature in the current issue of Look magazine as part of their walking guide of Darlinghurst galleries.

Once home to arts students and a ragtag overflow from the Kings Cross red light district, Darlo (as it is affectionately known to locals) is now a densely packed arts precinct.

You can explore the diverse galleries of the Darlinghurst arts precinct with Look’s new digital guide, which is conveniently accessible on mobile or tablet. Click through the link below to access your own copy.

Look Magazine is a bi-monthly publication edited by arts journalist Susannah Smith, featuring a wealth of articles by curators and specialist writers, along with exclusive previews of Gallery exhibitions, events and acquisitions.
