VAS Gallery invites Victorian Artists to join our inaugural 9x5 Exhibition running from 26 May to 12 June 2023.
The original iconic impressionism exhibition in 1889 was organised and featured paintings by VAS artists Arthur Streeton, Tom Roberts and Charles Conder, who painted on cigar box lids 9 by 5 inches in size.
Paying homage to this important part of Victorian art history, we invite artists from across Victoria in all mediums and styles to put their own spin on the 9x5 legacy.
Entry into this 2023 exhibition will be open to all artists across Victoria.

We would like to pay our respects to the traditional owners of the land on which our building stands, their leaders, past, present and emerging.
