Friends of EGAG
Friends of East Gippsland Art Gallery was established in 1995 to enable people interested in the arts to promote the gallery and support development of the arts in East Gippsland. Friends are an integral part of EGAG, providing volunteer assistance for activities and fundraising toward operating expenses, equipment purchases and minor maintenance.
With benefits to card-carrying members including reciprocal rights at other galleries, discounts at local retail outlets, members only newsletters, calendars and VIP email updates, a Friends of EGAG membership offers astounding value.
