Judith Wright Centre of Contemporary Arts

Judith Wright Centre of Contemporary Arts, Contemporary arts centre in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, Australia

The Judith Wright Centre is an arts centre in Fortitude Valley with performance spaces and galleries spread across multiple floors in a renovated building. The layout combines exhibition areas with stages of varying sizes designed to accommodate different types of performances.

The larger of its two buildings was originally a Bushell's Tea factory. The site was redeveloped by Cox Architects and built by Multiplex Constructions, and the venue reopened as an arts centre in October 2001. It is named after Judith Wright, the Queensland poet, Indigenous rights advocate and environmental activist, who died in 2000.

The centre is nicknamed "The Judy" after Judith Wright, a Queensland poet, Indigenous rights advocate and environmental activist. It houses resident organisations including the Aboriginal Centre for the Performing Arts, Blakdance, Circa Contemporary Circus and the Institute of Modern Art, and each year hosts the Queensland Poetry Festival.

The centre occupies two buildings at the corner of Berwick Street and 420 Brunswick Street in Fortitude Valley. The main performance space is a flexible black box theatre, and there are three rehearsal studios for dance, theatre and music. Visitors can check with Arts Queensland or the venue for current event details.

The five-storey building on the site was originally a factory for Bushell's Tea before its conversion into an arts centre. The redevelopment was designed by Cox Architects and built by Multiplex Constructions, and the venue reopened in October 2001. It is managed by Arts Queensland and known locally as The Judy.
