Discover Boom Gate Gallery

Boom Gate Gallery displays and sells art by inmates of NSW correctional centres.

Art is a way for inmates to express and explore their feelings, and build confidence by tapping into their creative potential. For some it can be a pathway to a career when they leave prison.
