Join The Women's College on a guided tour of the Arthur Boyd: Tapestries exhibition at the National Gallery of Australia, followed by networking and dinner.
"Experience the full cycle of 20 monumental tapestries by renowned Australian artist Arthur Boyd. Boyd commissioned the tapestries, part of his extensive artistic exploration of the life of Saint Francis, from the Manufactura de Tapeçarias de Portalegre, Portugal, and they were purchased by the National Gallery in 1975. This exhibition marks the inaugural presentation of the complete series." (National Gallery of Australia) Learn more about this exhibition on the NGA website.
