The Museum and Galleries NSW 2018 Regional Public Galleries Summit Art & Artists will be held in Sydney, at Carriageworks (and other Sydney venues), from 18-21 March 2018. Held concurrently with the 21st Biennale of Sydney, Art & Artists will bring together staff from galleries throughout Australia and New Zealand during Sydney’s busiest month of art and culture.
Focusing on the distinction that the visual arts and artists bring to the cultural space, Art & Artists will present a lively program including panel discussions, workshops, a summit dinner and other networking events at one of Australia’s most significant contemporary arts centres, as well as other venues across the city.
