Applications for Teen Council 2026 are now closed
Each year, a new cohort of teens gets an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at gallery operations across multiple departments. NGV Teen Council members actively engage with NGV staff and contribute to NGV teen programs and events. Meetings are held on site at the NGV from 4.30–6pm on one Thursday each month, from February through September. Occasionally, meetings may be scheduled during school holidays.
Please note places are limited and successful applicants will be notified in late December 2025. For all enquiries, please contact us via our online form.
“I am so grateful I was able to be on the 2025 Teen Council. I learnt so much about not just art itself, but the careers that are available to me within the gallery world. I made so many connections with people I would not have met otherwise.”
