Latrobe Regional Gallery

Latrobe Regional Gallery is a public art gallery located in Morwell, Victoria, Australia. Established in 1971, it is owned and operated by Latrobe City Council and presents contemporary art exhibitions, public programs and education activities for the Gippsland region.

History
The gallery occupies the site of the former Morwell Town Hall, built in 1936 on the corner of Commercial and Hazelwood Roads after a fire destroyed the original Mechanics' Institute in 1880 (which had been rebuilt and opened in 1907). In 2017, the gallery underwent a major $1.5 million refurbishment to meet international exhibition standards, including climate control, LED lighting and flexible display walls. The project, designed by NAAU Studio, reopened the venue from 14 July 2017. == Collection ==
