NGV Supporters of Indigenous Art

NGV Supporters of Indigenous Art was formed in mid 2001 in order to broaden support for the Indigenous collection of the National Gallery of Victoria.

NGV Supporters of Indigenous Art brings together a group of enthusiasts and collectors of Indigenous art. This group meets with curators, writers,scholars, NGV executive staff and artists to view, discuss and celebrate Indigenous art. SIA also exists to provide the NGV with a fighting fund for acquisitions to enable us to maintain the strength of the Gallery’s Indigenous collection in an increasingly competitive world. SIA is the first support group of its kind at the NGV and offers SIA members the following:

• Opportunities to meet and liaise with enthusiasts and collectors of Indigenous Art.
• Opportunities to meet artists, scholars and researchers.
• Regular newsletters outlining current and future acquisitions and exhibitions.

A broad, flexible range of options is available, including gifts of Indigenous works of art, bequests, and sponsorship of specific works, communities or artists.

Through NGV Supporters of Indigenous Art, you can help to ensure the future of the National Gallery of Victoria’s Indigenous Australian collection.

The National Gallery of Victoria is a deductible gift recipient for taxation purposes.
