The Dax Centre is proudly part of the SANE Australia Group.

Founded in 2012, but with a history spanning back to the 1940’s,
The Dax Centre is the premier gallery and education centre of it’s kind in Melbourne

We are the custodians of the Cunningham Dax Collection of art, one of only four collections of its kind in the world and the only Collection of it’s size and type in Australia.

The Dax Centre, with SANE, work with artists with lived experience of mental health issues, providing a safe and supportive environment for the artists to exhibit their work, develop their art practice and raise the public’s awareness of these artist’s important cultural contributions.

We deliver education programs to secondary and tertiary students that inspire young people, expand their understanding of mental health issues and break down stigma.

Through our exhibitions and educational programs we engage, inform and encourage conversations about mental health through art.

We challenge stigma towards mental health issues and start conversations that advance the understanding of mental health issues and build empathy.

We are the custodians of the Cunningham Dax Collection of art, one of only four collections of its kind in the world and the only Collection of it’s size and type in Australia.
