F Project Gallery

Top choice


Set up in a former funeral home by local art collective the F Project, this contemporary gallery always has something interesting showing at its monthly exhibitions. Pop round the back to say g'day to the artists in residence. Its shop is another reason to visit, with some wonderful jewellery, accessories, artworks, books and music, all produced by Warrnambool locals. There's inexpensive accommodation too, and some cool street-art murals outside.
