Gifted: A Legacy of Generosity

 

13 December 2025 – 15 March 2026

 

Gifted: A Legacy of Generosity showcases a selection of art works gifted to the collection, spanning from the Sarjeant Gallery’s earliest collecting to more recent acquisitions, as well as works recently returned from conservation treatment made possible with funding from the B & C Hewett Charitable Trust. This exhibition allows visitors the opportunity to see many of these works, and learn more about their stories, for the very first time.
