MGA holds one of Australia's preeminent collections of Australian photography. The MGA City of Monash Collection is an important cultural asset; it adds significantly to the cultural life of the City of Monash and is an important education resource. This important collection has been developed in large part through the generosity of collectors and artists who have donated work to the collection.
MGA's free guided tours are available Tuesday–Friday 9am–4pm.
