    Established in 1871, the Art Gallery of New South Wales is located in Sydney’s The Domain adjacent to the Royal Botanic Garden and near the Central Business District, the Art Gallery acknowledges the original custodians of this land – the Gadigal people of the Eora nation.
    The Art Gallery attracts around 2 million visitors annually and runs one of Australia’s largest art education programs with over 90,000 student and teacher visits per year.
    Our expanded campus opened in late 2022, providing the Art Gallery with a new state-of-the-art building located next to our existing and much-loved building. The addition has given the Art Gallery double the exhibition space, allowing us to significantly increase our scheduled exhibitions, companion publications, family programming and educational programs, allowing the Art Gallery to share more art with more people.
    We are seeking diverse, collaborative, supportive and dedicated individuals to work alongside our existing talent and build on our rich history to create an even more inspiring Art Gallery for the future.
