Creators Art Space relaunched in Gateway Village on Friday night with a members' exhibition following up on Saturday with a makers' market.
The members' exhibition, Re-Creation 2021, runs until Sunday, May 16.
Creators Art Space vice-president Paul Temple said COVID-19 had been tough for the arts sector.
He said the gallery had tried to reopen three times.
"We had three almost start-ups," he said.
"There was the first border closure, then when Victoria closed the border with the checkpoint in the middle of Gateway Village it wasn't worth opening."
