Bendigo Art Gallery

Bendigo Art Gallery is an art museum in Bendigo combining restored 19th century rooms with modern exhibition spaces. The collection spans both historical artworks and contemporary works across various artistic forms and styles.

Founded in 1887, the museum developed into one of Australia's largest regional art institutions. The ongoing maintenance and modernization of its original building structures shaped its evolution over time.

The gallery houses the Djaa Djuwima First Nations Gallery on Dja Dja Wurrung Country, presenting works by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists. Visitors experience contemporary perspectives on indigenous artistic traditions and their connection to the region.

The museum is conveniently located in the city center and accessible to all visitors, including those with mobility needs. Plan several hours to properly explore the various collections and rotating exhibitions throughout the building.
