La Trobe University Museum of Art, located at the Bundoora campus, engages in historical and contemporary art debates. It is a creative institution that seeks to make a significant contribution to contemporary critical discourse; add to the knowledge of Australian artists, movements and events; work in cross-discipline paradigms; and be actively engaged in important State, National and International collaborative projects.
Our exhibition, education and public programs aim to explore social, cultural and political themes creating a vital centre of research, teaching, interpretation and dialogue. Through these programs we seek to engage, educate, inspire and encourage.
Art is not supposed to just be beautiful, appropriate for a setting or easy. Its most satisfying function is that it allows us to exercise our minds. Philip Yenawine (former Director of Education, New York Museum of Modern Art)
La Trobe University Museum of Art encourages opportunities for schools to come into close contact with its art collection. Our education program is designed around the Victorian Essential Learning Standards with a focus on developing creativity in learning.
School and community groups are encouraged to contact the Museum where we can provide supported tours of current exhibitions and the La Trobe University Sculpture Park.
Educational resource material with links to the school curriculum can also be provided by request.
