Since its founding in 1972, the Potter Museum of Art has been located across a number of sites on the University of Melbourne’s Parkville campus. The current Swanston Street building was designed by Katsalidis Architects and first opened to the public in 1998. After a period of closure between 2018–2024, the Potter reopens in 2025 with an extension designed by Wood Marsh Architects featuring state of the art teaching and learning studios and upgraded social, events and associated amenities—all of which are accessible through a new, distinctive arched entry on campus. 

The Potter has supported generations of artists, curators, writers and academics for over fifty years, making a significant contribution to the cultural and social life of the University and its wider community. Looking forward, the Potter’s exhibitions and public programs, fellowships and residencies, research and publishing activities will be thematically focused and interdisciplinary in approach, continuing to centre the voices of artists and art on the key issues and debates of our time.

The Potter is one of the homes of the University of Melbourne Art Collection, with work spanning antiquity to contemporary practice. While the principal focus of the Collection is Australian art, a range of international works include gifts from distinguished alumni and teaching collections that demonstrate the strong connections between the University’s cultural collections and its academic programs. Notable for its breadth, the Collection – now numbering some 18,000 works – is uniquely connected to the University’s history while also responding to our evolving cultural landscape.
