Drop in and Draw | Portrait Month

Kids, big and small, can enjoy the interactive drawing space every day the Gallery is open by creating their own landscape, portrait or still life.

Portraits commemorate, transform, reflect, iconise and sometimes distort their subject in endlessly fascinating variety.

In an exciting new initiative for 2016, AGWA introduces Portrait Month where we explore the many forms of portraiture across photography, painting, video and sculpture.

Taking centre focus is the State’s premier portraiture prize, the 2016 Black Swan Prize for Portraiture which features alongside AGWA’s own Portrait Project.
