ABOUT US

Byron Bay Contemporary Artspace seamlessly combines an art gallery with an independent art school in the heart of Byron Bay.  

​

Explore our range of engaging, holistic art classes designed for Kids, Teens and Adults. 

​

Our tailored art classes for Kids, Teens, and Adults ensure individualized attention, thanks to their small size, fostering a flexible and supportive learning environment.

 

Our commitment lies in cultivating an inclusive learning atmosphere. Here, individuals of all ages—Kids, Teens, and Adults—are not just taught; they are encouraged, empowered with confidence, and equipped with the technical know-how to unleash their creative potential.

​​

MZ Gallery features works from established and emerging artists and is available for exhibition hire. We actively promote local artists and engage with the wider art community.

​

We also host events such as kids and adults Art Parties, Lifedrawing & Wine Evenings as well as Corporate Team Building Art Events. 

​

Dr. Michele Zarro, the owner, is a passionate visual artist with over 20 years of experience. Michele holds a Graduate Diploma of Education from the University of New England and a current NSW Working With Children Check.

​

I believe the enduring relationship between the Arts, Education, Society and Culture is important and this ideology underpins my vision for

Byron Bay Contemporary Artspace.
