Special Interest Group Tours

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.

The guide fee is $20/guide for a maximum of 10 tour participants. If group numbers exceed 10 in number, a second guide is scheduled for an additional $20. Process guide fee payments here >

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 with all participants entitled to the reduced concession price ticket, and the guide fee for the tour is waived.

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