Past program

This program takes place virtually

The NGVWA presents its first Virtual Garden Day offering a unique online guided tour of artists’ and collectors’ private gardens, with exclusive insights into their art and collections.

Hear from garden owners, including artist Bill Henson, discuss their favourite plants and most treasured spots in the garden. In another first, several gardens featured are in regional Victoria offering the chance to see much larger scale planting and design ideas.

All proceeds from this virtual program will enable the NGVWA to continue to support art acquisitions at the NGV.

The much-anticipated NGVWA produce stall will this year move to Minimax in Malvern Road, Hawksburn. A wide selection of preserves and chutneys will be available to purchase from 15 November until sold out with all sales supporting the NGV.
