Special Interest Groups (SIGs) visit for 1 hour tours each month from February to November. Each SIG is scheduled to visit on the same day/time each month (e.g. the first Monday of the month at 11am). Tours are rescheduled if they fall on a public holiday.

Tour topics change each month subject to AGSA's exhibitions and displays.

Each visit requires the following contribution to the continuous learning of our Volunteer Gallery Guides:

  • $20 for a maximum of 10 tour participants (1 guide allocated)
  • $30 for a maximum of 15 tour participants (2 guides allocated)
  • $40 for a maximum of 20 tour participants (2 guides allocated)

Special Interest Groups also attend AGSA's ticketed exhibitions (usually once/year). In this instance each SIG member is required to purchase an exhibition ticket and the guide payment for the tour is waived.

Special Interest Group tour participants are to gather and meet the allocated guide/s in the Atrium for the commencement of each tour (unless otherwise advised). Refer to the AGSA Gallery Map for details (Map 2, identified with a C).

Please contact guides@artgallery.sa.gov.au with any questions.
