Situated in Brisbane’s Cultural Precinct at South Bank, and in one of Australia’s oldest art schools, the Queensland College of Art & Design, GUAM stimulates active and lifelong learning through diverse exhibitions, public programmes, research, teaching, and publishing for our community of students, faculty, artists, scholars, alumni, and the wider public.
