Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre, Arts centre in Casula, Australia.
Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre is an arts facility with six gallery spaces, a 326-seat theatre, and multiple performance areas located along the Georges River banks. The venue accommodates a wide range of artistic presentations and exhibitions within its spaces.
The building opened in 1951 as Liverpool Powerhouse, functioning as an electricity generating facility for decades. In 1994, the local community decided to transform it into an arts centre, giving the historic structure a new purpose.
The centre honours Aboriginal artists through works like the Koori Floor by Judy Watson that visitors encounter while moving through the galleries. These pieces reflect how the space celebrates local creative voices and Indigenous perspectives in contemporary art.
The centre sits within walking distance of Casula Railway Station, making it easy to reach by train. Free parking is available on the grounds, and the riverside setting provides comfortable spaces for visitors to move around.
The grounds sprawl across about 20 hectares, blending art galleries with parkland, play areas, and riverside walking paths. This combination means families can enjoy outdoor recreation and cultural activities without leaving the property.
