WELCOME TO ANTIQUE EMPORIUM - IMPORTERS, RETAILERS, WHOLESALERS, ANTIQUE & BOOK DEALERS. You will find 1600 square meters of goods on 4 levels. The owner, John Cole, Personally travels for up to 3 months of the year going door to door & village to village in remote parts of the world. From factories to isolated villages; We find TREASURES, restore them and TRANSPORT them DIRECTLY to Tasmania.
The Antique Emporium is one of my favourite places to visit when looking for something in particular, and also just to browse. I seem to be incapable of leaving empty handed! To fully appreciate the sheer scope of this incredible market-style shop, you need to spend at least an hour wandering through all the rooms, down the little aisles, and exploring every nook and cranny - this is where you find the gold. John & his staff are astonishingly knowledgeable about what items they have in store, and they can find you just about anything. As other reviewers have noted, there is a large variety in price points & the quality of items on offer, but this is part of the charm. Antique sideboard from the 1800's? Check! A book on Tasmanian rail history? Check! A copy of a Harry Potter wand? Check! Costume jewellery? Check! It's really a one stop shop for a carefully curated range of pretty much anything under the sun.

The Devonport Regional Gallery presents an annual program of exhibitions, education and public programs including events and workshops, and contributes to the cultural, social and educational life of the local community, boasting an impressive collection of fine art with a focus on Tasmanian contemporary art, craft and design. In the Main & Upper Gallery spaces, exhibitions from the Gallery's Permanent Collection, staff-curated exhibitions and touring exhibitions are displayed. The Little Gallery showcases the work of emerging Tasmanian artists with a focus on artists from the North West Region. The Devonport Regional Gallery evolved from The Little Gallery, which was founded by Jean Thomas in 1966. The Little Gallery was situated in a weatherboard building behind the Baptist Church (built 1904) in Stewart Street, which became the home of the Gallery until 2018. The Gallery then relocated to the heritage-listed building of the paranaple arts centre on Rooke Street in November 2018.
It's such a joy to see a Tassie public gallery supporting established and emerging local artists; especially in art forms other than paintings and photography. Hankering for installations? Video art? Works made from found objects or mixed media? Innovative interpretation of still life or sculpture through choice of media? This is the gallery to visit then! - especially for all who admire the contemporary art exhibited in Singapore Art Museum.
