Well, GoMA's got a display of local architects work on at the moment (I think), and the State Library are running something on retro-gaming. Lots of old Arcade Machines and stuff (though I don't think that starts for a bit). Artisan Gallery in the Valley also had a display of local young designers on last I checked (called "Launch Pad).
I'm more of a chiller than a clubber, so relaxing wise: The Bowery in the Valley does live jazz of a thursday night. Shadow Lounge on Eagle Street has sunday happy hour from 4-6, $3.50 Asahi, 7$ cocktails (selected), free chocolate fondu and boardgames. Great place to sit and watch the sun go down, but becomes a bit of a sleaze hole after dark.
If you're in the Valley, hit up Fat Rics (formerly Fatboys) for all day breakfast, and Gardinetto up the road does good Italian, but again I haven't been there for awhile. Also Campos Coffee is worth hitting up (behind the James Street Market) if you're in during the day. Best coffee in the CBD (that I know of so far) is either Jeremys on Albert, Brother Espresso on Mary or Naked in Elizabeth Arcade. Elizabeth Arcade also has a few interesing little boutique shops in it.
err, I'll shut up now.
