The Gallery is part of Cradle Mountain Hotel, which offers delicious Tasmanian food and refreshments at Altitude Restaurant + Lounge Bar. The Gallery is open to the public five days a week.
The Cradle Mountain Wilderness Gallery and Cradle Mountain Hotel are one of a number of tourist properties in Tasmania that are owned by NRMA Tasmania. The Gallery was originally opened in 2003 as a world class international photography gallery. Built by Doherty’s, with Patricia Sabine as the Curator, the gallery was officially opened by then Senator, Dr Bob Brown and attracted interest from across the globe.
The Gallery remains committed to promoting Tasmanian photographers; with more than 3000 photographs within its collection. In recent years however, the brief has broadened to include all art forms showcasing the breadth of talent of Tasmania’s artists and designers.
