About RMIT Gallery

RMIT Gallery, located in the historic Storey Hall, is a public art gallery that presents a dynamic program of contemporary exhibitions featuring both emerging and established artists and curators. The gallery is dedicated to showcasing RMIT’s research and cultural stories through exhibitions and events that engage both the public and the student community.

Opened in 1977 with an inaugural exhibition by John Brack and refurbished in 1996, the gallery is situated in Melbourne’s cultural precinct, near landmarks like the State Library of Victoria and Melbourne Central.

RMIT Gallery has been an essential part of Melbourne’s arts scene, housed in a building with a rich history that has evolved from a site of social and political activism to its current role as a prominent venue in the city’s exhibition calendar.
