Outside Garden Filming & Photography

Lewers: Penrith Regional Gallery’s artist-designed heritage gardens and grounds offer an enchanting backdrop for photography.

At the heart of the site is Lewers House Gallery, originally a Colonial Period home built in 1905. This historic building stands as a testament to the early settlement of the Nepean district.

The Gallery is also home to two remarkable examples of Modernist architecture by renowned architect Sydney Ancher. In 1956, Ancher transformed an existing structure into a Modernist living space for the Lewers family. Shortly after, he collaborated with Margo Lewers to design an additional dwelling, now the only example of Ancher’s work in Western Sydney. These buildings have been thoughtfully
repurposed as the Lounge Room Gallery and Ancher House Gallery.

Please note that approval is required for photography requests inside the galleries. If you are interested, be sure to mention this when making your enquiry.
