HERVEY BAY REGIONAL GALLERY
24
Two years on from having to unexpectedly close our doors – and following an extensive refurbishment – we are excited to finally be reopening and welcoming visitors back to a new and improved Hervey Bay Regional Gallery (HBRG). We also welcome new Gallery Director, Ashleigh Whatling – who brings her experience as the Senior Curator Visual Art and Design at the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery (QVMAG) in Launceston – and look forward to her implementing the vision and aspirations gathered from extensive community consultation during our closure period. In addition to remedial works the gallery now boasts an upgraded climate control system meeting the requirements for national touring exhibitions along with the establishment of a national standards collections storage area and additional gallery space allowing the hosting of larger exhibitions.
