A new artist-run-initiative in the Perth CBD, Cool Change Contemporary is a multi-gallery venue located within the historic Bon Marche Arcade building on Barrack Street. Cool Change Contemporary hosts a monthly program of exhibitions supported by regular performances, screenings, workshops and events, and is home to an artist studio. 

Cool Change is the arrival of a cold front in the afternoon or evening after a day of high summertime temperatures. It is the sense of interconnectedness with your surroundings, and a feeling that things are about to pick up. Cool Change Contemporary stands for critically engaged work, an accessible, welcoming environment and an agile, responsive outlook.

Cool Change Contemporary is a volunteer led organisation. Founded by Jess Boyce, Emma Buswell, Grace Connors, Miranda Johnson, Melissa McGrath, Shoshana Rosenberg, and Matthew Siddall, the Cool Change board is supported by a number of hardworking additional volunteers.
