EXCLUSIVE | AN EVENING WITH A PRIVATE AUSTRALIAN ART COLLECTION

Thursday 28 Jun 2018, 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM

The Friends will have a night to remember when they visit and view this wonderful collection, in a very private setting, while enjoying wine and hors d'oeuvres. Don't miss out of this unique opportunity and join The Friends for a very special fundraising evening.

To maintain the exclusivity of the night, the actual location of the collection will only be sent out to those who register to attend this amazing event.

This private collection, including Arthur Streeton's Melbourne City Skyline, is located in Hawthorn East, and it is significant, with many pieces of major Australian art, collected over a long period of time. The collection continues to grow and contains a diverse range of styles and periods which include paintings, photographs, works on print and sculpture. Work by artists such as Arthur Streeton, Frederick McCubbin, Fred Williams, John Russell, Ian Fairweather, Peter Booth and Bill Henson.

This private collector has been a long-term supporter of institutions such as the National Gallery of Victoria, Monash Gallery of Art, Benalla Art Gallery and Heide Museum of Modern Art. He is a benefactor of art through donations (including works of art) and sponsorships of various exhibitions. The collection has been publicly exhibited and elements of it are lent regularly for exhibitions.

MEMBERS: $80.00 | NON-MEMBERS: $95.00
