NGV International

Ground Level

Are you a senior interested in learning more about art, design and the NGV? Join our friendly NGV Guides in the Gallery each month for an hour of informal conversation about selected artworks and stay on for a cup of tea in the café to continue the discussion. We would love to hear your perspectives and questions as we engage with ideas, share insights, and discover fascinating layers of culture and history in artworks. No prior art knowledge or experience is required.

Let’s celebrate the Lunar New Year!  Explore a diverse selection of works in the NGV’s Asian Collection to honour the beginning of the Year of the Dragon. Explore the symbols and traditions in Asian art and design and welcome the new year with art, culture, and engaging conversations.
