'Geelong is the fastest growing city in regional Australia, and Geelong Gallery is home to one of the most significant collections of Australian Art. A redeveloped Gallery will enable the Geelong community to share in the social, cultural and economic benefits of a world class facility in their city, that would become a point a civic pride for residents in the G21 region, inspiration for creative industries and an unmissable destination for visitors.'
Humphrey Clegg, Director & CEO
Currently Geelong Gallery is challenged by a lack of space to display our nationally important collection (less than 2% on display) and to attract and present major exhibitions of local, national and international content. As the expanded Geelong Library and Heritage Centre and evolving Geelong Arts Centre continue to transform our cultural offering, Geelong Gallery’s expansion will ensure the completion of a 21-century arts and cultural precinct for our UNESCO City of Design.
Our diverse, clever, creative and rapidly expanding population needs cultural assets and infrastructure to match the changing needs of our people. We are working closely alongside the City of Greater Geelong to ensure we keep pace as a regional facility of state significance to provide a vibrant cultural, learning and social space that connects to the unique heritage of our City and historic buildings.
