    GEELONG GALLERY STRATEGIC PLAN 2020–2023 0 GEELONG GALLERY STRATEGIC PLAN 2020 – 2023 Endorsed by Geelong Gallery Board 21 September 2020 CONTENTS 1. Our Purpose 3 2. Introduction 3 3. Organisational Background 4 4. Strategic Plan 6 1 GEELONG GALLERY STRATEGIC PLAN 2020 – 2023 Endorsed by Geelong Gallery Board 21 September 2020 1. OUR PURPOSE Geelong Gallery’s purpose is to provide an experience of art that will enrich people’s lives. PILLARS Geelong Gallery’s purpose is underpinned by four pillars: 1. Geelong Gallery will deliver artistic and cultural advancement for the community thus making Geelong a more liveable City; 2. Geelong Gallery will bring economic benefit to the region through tourism arising from its exhibitions and events; 3. Geelong Gallery will connect and empower people by promoting equity, diversity, inclusion, access and lifelong learning; 4. Geelong Gallery will expand its premises to provide greater access to its collections and exhibitions, in order to significantly enhance the delivery of its aims in the first, second and third pillars. 2. INTRODUCTION This document summarises the strategic direction of Geelong Gallery for the period 2020–2023. This Plan is endorsed by the Geelong Gallery Board and supported by six key sub-committees of the Board focussed on the Governance and guidance of Gallery operations. The plan is implemented by Senior Management via detailed annual business plans. While many Gallery activities delivered are quantifiable, the primary outcomes of the Gallery’s core business — across exhibitions, learning and public programs, and visitor experience — are qualitative: beyond conventional accounting and measurement, and reliant on peer, popular and critical response in the short and long term, and on the cumulative effects of learning, engagement and self-determination.

INTRODUCTION My examination of the holdings of private art collections in Victoria before 1892 is confined to British and European art. It was to Britain that taste was oriented, and the emerging group of Australian painters made little impact upon those patrons and collectors recognized as being the cultural leaders of the community. It would have been difficult to incorporate my research on collectors of Australian art in an essay of this length. I have therefore confined myself to a number of general observations set out in Appendix E. These may be useful in better understanding a part of the background against which British and European art was collected.
