About Parramatta Artists Studios

Established in 2006, Parramatta Artists Studios is an initiative of the City of Parramatta Council. Through our supported studio facilities in Granville and Rydalmere, as well as our digital residencies, we offer studio spaces, residencies, career development opportunities and community-connected programs. These programs connect artists with Parramatta’s wider communities and contribute to its vibrant culture.

Parramatta Artists Studios has supported hundreds of artists to build and grow their practices in Western Sydney, many of whom are at the forefront of contemporary artistic practice in Australia.

As well as providing studios, Parramatta Artists Studios runs a number of flexible residency and development programs.
