From 4 -7 June 2018, MA (Vic) hosted the Museums Galleries Australia National Conference at the Meat Market, North Melbourne.

About the Conference

The theme was  ‘Agents of Change’ with debate, discussion, workshops and masterclasses on provocative ideas, disruptive practice and how to make an impact in today's challenging environment.

Our thanks to our members and supporters who gave us feedback following the national museums and galleries conference in June. We ran two snapshot surveys: one for attendees, and one for non-attendees, to ask for some detail about why they didn’t attend.

The Victorian Museums & Galleries Conference is curated to appeal to a broad audience, from large state institutions to small volunteer-run organisations, and brings together the Victorian museum, gallery, heritage, and conservation community, connecting regional and metropolitan volunteers and professionals, and showcasing some of the best museum and gallery practice, community-building projects, and local cultural heritage.

The Conference takes place every other year in regional Victoria, alternating with our Forum in Melbourne.
