Drop into Hartley Historic Site Visitor Centre before you tour the village. As well as providing all the information you will need about Hartley's buildings and history, it stocks a range of Australian souvenirs, snacks and drinks. Historical and art displays give fascinating insights into the story of Hartley. Spend some time checking out the old photographs and imagining the bustle of this little village in its heyday.
Hartley Historic Site Visitor Centre is itself housed in a colonial building: the Farmers Inn. Today, the building is also home to the Kew-Y-Ahn Aboriginal Gallery, which is a partnership between Arts OutWest and the NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service. The gallery has been operating since 2013 and exhibits the work of Aboriginal painters, weavers, designers, jewellers and photographers from across the NSW Central West.
