Summer ‘26

Each summer, N.Smith Gallery takes a moment to pause and to look back on the year that was and to acknowledge the shared effort that makes our program possible. Summer ‘26 brings together artists from across the gallery community in a celebration of collective achievement: the works made, the exhibitions realised, the projects that extended far beyond our walls.

More than a survey, Summer ‘26 is a reminder that every artwork, conversation, and collaboration contributes to a broader ecosystem — one sustained by artists, arts workers, collectors, and the communities who engage with contemporary art. 

In celebrating this shared momentum, Summer ‘26 marks not just the close of a year, but the beginning of the next chapter in an ongoing story of creative exchange.

UPDATE:

Out of respect for the recent tragic events in Bondi, we have decided to postpone our exhibition opening event until January. Our thoughts are with everyone affected, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the New Year.
