From our team here at NGV, we would like to express our very best wishes to our community at this time. We are currently closed to the public and will reopen on Saturday, 27 June, 2020.
In line with Victorian Chief Health Officer’s guidance, the NGV will implement a variety of public health and physical distancing measures including free timed ticketing, appropriate queue management and increased deep cleaning of facilities, as well as increased hand sanitiser stations.
We encourage you to continue to visit our website and follow #NGVEveryDay on social media for updates on our reopening and daily inspiration.
We are very grateful for the loyalty of the NGV community and look forward to welcoming you back soon.
‘White male identity is reflected everywhere, and in everything. Identity is the art of being. For women, this being can be, and often necessitates, an act of resistance and self-determination. To be entirely oneself in a world that is designed for and by others requires conscious interrogation.’
Myles Russell-Cook
‘Art can teach people that our community, and our identity, is something to be proud of and not something to be ashamed of.’
Claire Coleman
‘Said’s flag design is simple yet powerful and communicates a global message of empowerment and acceptance of all refugees. The acquisition of these flags recognises their status as important design milestones.’
