We enjoy the generous support of the corporate and philanthropic supporters who are identified in our literature, on our website and in our foyer signage, and we enjoy, no less, the indispensable support of the Gallery’s own Foundation, our Friends group and the Geelong Gallery Grasshoppers who, amongst other aspects of Gallery life, support the biennial Print Awards. Geelong Gallery annual report 2010–2011 04

Thanks are due also to our Volunteer Guides, Peter McMullin (President) and our wider volunteer corps.

I acknowledge the commitment of time and expertise given by every member of each of our boards and committees, volunteers all, and I place on record our thanks to them including, of course, to my fellow board members. Needless to say, I record here our sincere appreciation to the Gallery’s staff who are to be congratulated on the achievements of the year.

At the Gallery’s opening night held just prior to the 2010–2011 Annual General Meeting, when we launched the 2011 Geelong print awards along with two smaller exhibitions, we were delighted to see our usual large and excited crowd of members, artists, local business identities, representatives of our sponsors and of our neighbours in the precinct. And thus prompted, I suggest that anyone who has been present at any of our opening night functions would agree that we are fortunate to have the strong Membership base we do, and if I might venture this next observation: that our Membership, as is Geelong’s wider community, is very well served in turn by an institution—the Geelong Gallery—that, free of charge, is accessible to everyone every day of the year except the four main public holidays, from 10.00am in the morning to 5.00pm in the afternoon—with excellent viewing and, if I may so, excellent shopping on constant and enticing offer!
