Each year the UMSU Art Collection supports University of Melbourne student artists by acquiring new artworks via commissions and graduate exhibitions for display in UMSU’s public spaces. To date there are 188 works on catalogue.

This year we are showing our brand-new acquisitions by Grace Chandler, Britt Salt, and Lachlan Stonehouse alongside works drawn from over a decade of the UMSU Art Collection by Nick James Archer, Olga Bennett, Lauren Brown, Noni Drew, Alethea Everard, David Glaubitz, Guy Grabowsky, Casey Jefferey, Kaijern Koo, Astrid Mulder, Caitlin Patane, Keren Simmons, Kenneth Suico, Alice Tsiavos, and Jenni Walker. Curated by Channon Goodwin with Ellie Thomas.
