Vision = 2014–18 Strategic

Plan ‘Building for the Future’

Utilising our exceptional collection of works of art, and the creative skills, energy and generosity of spirit of our staff and volunteers, we will create a 3 Chair’s Report Art Gallery of Ballarat Board of Directors

In 2010 when the current Board structure was created, we were asked to ‘develop and grow the Gallery’. Planning for growth has been an interesting journey, which at times seemed unachievable, but in the words of Kev Carmody and Paul Kelly ‘from little things big things grow’.

Each year we make significant inroads into our action plan and this year is no different. This year, it is all about the numbers: our total attendance of 187,301 is a record, the largest visitation the Art Gallery of Ballarat has ever seen thanks to the great success of the 2015 Archibald Prize exhibition along with our diverse exhibition schedule.

This year we: • had 56,915 visitors who paid to attend an exhibition, and 130,386 visitors who enjoyed free entry to exhibitions; • ran thirty-six exhibitions (thirty of which were self- curated/initiated exhibitions) resulting in 1,692 exhibition days; • hosted almost 130 public program events, such as workshops, lectures, concerts etc; • had 10,084 children/youth in our Education programs; • added 280 new artworks to the collection as either purchases, bequests, gifts or Cultural Gifts. Highlights include a Hubert von Herkomer portrait, indigenous portraits in print, Eureka-related drawings from the 1860s, a work by Julia Silvester, Danny Moynihan prints and Kevin Lincoln works; • created a series of in-house publications, including the beautiful Kevin Lincoln catalogue, including the limited- edition copies; • made the decision to take control of the café lease and appoint Kittelty’s as the café operators last year, a move which has turned our street frontage into a vibrant café and entrance area. 4 We are halfway through our 2014–18 Strategic Plan ‘Building deal of oversight. The ongoing MOU discussions this year for the Future’ and this year’s milestones continue to highlighted more issues with the current governance deliver on our four key building pillars: to build an inspiring structures of and the relationships between the Gallery exhibition schedule, and to build our footprint, build our Board, Association, Foundation and Guides.
