TAP Gallery acknowledges the support of the City of Sydney

Cultural Sector Resilience Grant

which has enabled the gallery to honour artists who were unable to exhibit

during COVID 19 LOCKDOWN.

For the past 24 years TAP Gallery has hosted the

REAL REFUSES

Being hung in the AGNSW is a prestigious achievement.

Never give up!!

Every year I go in the Archibald., knowing I probably will not be selected, however I can at least show the work to my peers & the public at TAP Gallery.

Not every one can get hung in the AGNSW but we guarantee to hang all rejected works at TAP GALLERY.

See our online gallery of works from previous Tap Real Refuse’s shows.

If we encourage each other every year to enter, one of us will get hung at some time in our artistic career.

ARTWORKS ARE COMING IN.

WE ARE TAKING WORKS UNTIL NEXT FRIDAY 2ND OCT 12-6PM

BELOW: 

The Love of a Father (Dr Paul Mason)

by Krista Elliott

is one the wonderful entries that will be on display in the REAL REFUSE

Real Refuses has become firmly established as part of the “Archibald Season”.

While it is an exhibition of rejected artwork, it is much more than that…

It is about giving a fair go to all the artists involved in Australia’s largest art events.

Not everyone can win an Archibald but here everyone can exhibit along side their peers. (You’ll find past winners of Australia’s biggest art prizes here as well!)

In the past an extraordinary range of subjects from musicians, actors, politicians including the NSW Premier, Mayor of Willoughby, Anthony Mundeen, Tony Abbott, Leo Sawyer, the then Prime Minister John Howard, Madame Lash, Elizabeth Cummings, Professor Bruce James Brew, and Jaiwei, (a winner of the Sulman.)

We can’t wait to see the works not selected this year
