2025 Tarnanthi Transport Subsidy Booking Information

Congratulations on your successful application! We look forward to welcoming you and your students to the Gallery in term 4 to visit Tarnanthi.

We will be processing a high number of transport subsidy booking requests. We ask that you consider your dates carefully before completing the below form to minimise changes after a booking has been made. Please check with your leadership team and your school calendar for other events at your site that may impact your visit.

In the booking request form you will be offered complimentary options for your visit, these include:

• Guided/Self-guided visits to Tarnanthi. Please note Guides cannot be guaranteed. One guide can cater for up to 15 students at a time (1 hour).

If you are bringing more than 60 students on one day we recommend dividing your group over three activities. For example, The Studio, tour of Tarnanthi and a third option from the student programs list (seasonal and year-round programs page below). Please note there may be an additional cost for some of these programs. You can also opt for the third option to be a self-guided tour of the permanent collection, which is free.
