The Exhibitions Gallery, Wangaratta is a temporary exhibitions space that hosts historic and contemporary visual art, fine craft, local and regional artists, design, social history and heritage exhibitions.

The unusual heritage-listed St Paul's Presbyterian Church was converted to the Exhibitions Gallery in 1987. Features of the building include leadlight windows and a unique patterned cedar ceiling with rosette and a mosaic walkway at the front entrance. The Gallery spaces are designed with partitioning that allows various configurations to suit the needs of temporary exhibitions. The gallery receives several travelling exhibitions a year and provides education and public programs. Performances are also held in the gallery.

Wangaratta is renowned Australia wide for its annual jazz festival, 'The Wangaratta Festival of Jazz and Blues' held every Melbourne Cup weekend (end of October beginning of November).
