Museum of Australian Photography (MAPh)

Monash Gallery of Art has transformed into the Museum of Australian Photography (MAPh), the preeminent national photography museum, dedicated to championing Australian photography and its vital role in culture and society. Our new identity builds on the incredible legacy forged over 30 years and will create a renewed platform to engage, local, national and international audiences as we cultivate a community that is actively engaged with Australian photography and its stories, and empower and celebrate its artists.

As the custodian of one of the most culturally significant collections of Australian photography in the country, the new name supports our vision for a destination precinct; a place that celebrates our cultural heritage and champions Australian photography. As a major photography destination in Australia’s network of galleries and museums, MAPh will contribute to the creation of a rich cultural life for Australians and those who visit both in person and online.
