QUEER: Stories from the NGV Collection shines a light on the NGV Collection to examine and reveal the queer stories works of art can tell. Gain insight into some of the stories, ideas and themes presented in this expansive exhibition through a series of conversations with the NGV curatorial team behind QUEER: Stories from the NGV Collection.

Curatorial Conversations will run over Saturday 19 March and Saturday 26 March as part of QUEER X Midsumma programming.

Community and Self: Discovering community is often about finding the people with whom you can share a sense of self. Join exhibition curators Myles-Russell Cook and Meg Slater to explore how art making has long been utilised by queer and LGBTQ+ people as a means of self-expression and community building.
