Located on steep Old Bailey Street, which is evident enough from the gallery’s name, New Gallery on Old Bailey (affectionately known as “NGOOB” to some) is a short hike up from Wyndham.

Established in 1999, the gallery aims to promote contemporary Chinese fine arts. It exhibits the work of well-established artists in a variety of styles, namely realism, surrealism, still-lifes, portraiture and modern abstraction.
