Victorian College of the Arts

Located in Southbank's arts precinct, the Victorian College of the Arts (VCA) is Melbourne University's school for the creative arts. With origins dating back to 1867, the campus is a mix of heritage-listed buildings and state-of-the-art spaces.

The school is home to the Margaret Lawrence Gallery, showing contemporary work from established artists, (including the end of year VCA Graduate Show) and the dedicated student gallery, VCA Artspace, both open to the public.

There’s more to explore, only in the city.
