SWANSEA COMMUNITY COTTAGE Inc

The restoration of the historical St Peters Anglican Chapel has occurred over the past year through an extensive series of renovations to bring this important piece of history back to the Swansea community.  From historical research, the Chapel has been identified as the oldest freestanding building in Swansea.

The Chapel is based at the rear of ARTea's Gallery & Garden, 28 Josephson St, Swansea and has been lovingly restored and is now available to the community for hire.  

In addition, the Chapel is the host to HELM - Heritage of East Lake Macquarie.    

ARTea’s Gallery & Garden in Swansea encourages our community to celebrate its talents and give them opportunities to connect, learn and grow.

This space is like no other in Swansea or surrounds, incorporating a giftshop full of local creations, a community art space where local hobbyist display and sell their masterpieces, Grubb @ ARTeas a place to share a cuppa and chat with friends in a casual space where you pay for your goodies by donation and our community garden and nursery where you can buy natives, herbs, household plants and vegies straight from the garden. 

This social enterprise initiative is at 28 Josephson Street, Swansea and incorporates the grounds of The Anglican Church of Swansea. 

Below you will find the application forms for all aspects of the Gallery and Garden. Whether you are a potter in the garden, a hobbyist who makes and sells jewellery, a lover of the arts, an aspiring artist or anyone in between we can find a place for you at ARTea's. 

Note- There are two versions of each application form. The PDF version can be printed and handwritten on or the Word version which can be edited. Both versions can be either dropped into the office during business hours or emailed to arteasgalleryandgarden@gmail.com
