Featuring everything from the cherished drawings of renowned Australian artist Brett Whiteley [Drawing is Everything] to Anastasia Parmson's interactive room sketch [I Drew a Line and Called It Home] and local artist Peter Wilson's fine ceramic art, visitors have had a diverse array of art to digest over the past month.
BRAG audience engagement officer Julian Woods said the gallery's staff have been immensely pleased with the reception to the exhibitions.
"Anastasia Parmson's exhibition in particular has proven popular among the younger crowd on social media, with many visitors taking to Instagram and TikTok to share her work," Mr Woods said.
"Because the artwork is such an immersive experience, people have been able to interact with the room and gain a glimpse into Anastasia's upbringing in Soviet-occupied Estonia."
"The Whiteley exhibition has also garnered plenty of attention, with his connection to Bathurst a key point of interest among visitors, and Peter Wilson's ceramic pots have drawn crowds locally and from Sydney."
Mr Woods said the exhibitions will be on display at BRAG until February 6, giving visitors plenty of time to pay a visit.
"There'll be a series of events and programs related to the exhibitions that will be announced very soon," he said.
"The gallery also has free activity drawing books available for school students to take home over the school holidays."
