National Gallery Art Cases

Next date: Friday, 28 March 2025 | 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM

Have you ever wanted to see – and touch – works of art from the national collection? The National Gallery of Australia’s Art Cases offer the chance to do just that, and they are coming to the Manning Regional Art Gallery from 17 march until 11 April!

The Art Cases program includes five, themed art-filled cases which travel to community centres, schools, libraries, art centres, galleries and aged care homes. With themes including ‘Bodies’, ‘Country’, ‘Earth’, ‘Past, Present and Future’ and ‘Form and Function’, works are examined and handled by people of all ages for a hands-on experience of learning, artmaking and storytelling.

The Manning Regional Art Gallery is hosting two of the National Gallery Art Cases 'Bodies' and 'Form and Function'. At 11am Friday 21, 28 March and Friday 4, 11 April, Gallery staff will have a facilitated session with the cases, come along and learn more about these incredible works of art.

For access outside these times or for group bookings please contact the Gallery on (02) 7955 7074 or email [email protected]

The Art Cases are generously supported by the Neilson Foundation with grateful acknowledgement of founding patrons Elaine and Jim Wolfensohn.
