EVENTS + PROGRAMS

The Regional Galleries Association of SA annual Study Tour is a professional development opportunity for staff, volunteers and artists working in galleries and cultural venues.  This year we are focusing on curatorial practice, visiting a range of metropolitan venues including JamFactory, MOD, SAMSTAG and more.  Participants will have an opportunity to see the galleries and their exhibitions in the context of high quality curation principles with staff presenting at each venue to explain their approaches and answer questions. This is a fantastic opportunity to see how other galleries plan and deliver their exhibitions and public programs and to network with industry colleagues
