About Montsalvat

Montsalvat, located in Eltham on Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Country, is an artistic community spanning nine decades of continuous creative practice. Established in 1934, Montsalvat has fostered a deeply connected creative community and provided thousands of painters, sculptors, musicians, writers, philosophers, poets and other makers with the time, space and support to further their creative practice.  

Our distinctive environment merges art, history, tourism and culture, providing an ideal setting for artists to display their work. Unlike traditional white cube galleries, our heritage multi-use spaces offer visitors and exhibitors a unique experience. Montsalvat hosts a variety of creative programs, events and activities within its’ gallery spaces and exhibitions add to the setting of these activations.
