Recent Aquisitions | City of Onkaparinga Art Collection
25 May - 25 June
The importance of having a permanent art collection can not be undervalued. Art is a form of storytelling, a snapshot in time rendered in countless mediums. The artwork making up the City of Onkaparinga's Art collection have been regularly acquired through gifts, commissions, purchases and acquisitive prizes. This exhibition features new acquisitions made in the last couple of years.
