Anne & Gordon Samstag Museum of Art
Formerly the UniSA Art Museum, the Anne & Gordon Samstag Museum of Art has been named in honour of two distinguished benefactors to Australian culture, whose remarkable bequest is administered by the Samstag Program through the University of South Australia.

Offering two substantial and elegant exhibition galleries over two levels it is a facility that communicates architectural distinction. Located near Adelaide’s other premier cultural institutions the museum is situated on North Terrace at UniSA’s City West campus.
