We are absolutely thrilled that PHOTO 2024 — Australia’s premier photography event — is coming to the Convent.

PHOTO Australia supports universal access to diverse, progressive, meaningful discourse to make sense of ourselves and the world around us. They achieve this through the promotion and commissioning of new photography, connecting Australia to global artists, and the celebration of the power of photography to illuminate lived experiences.

Join the Convent on an exciting visual journey, and explore this exceptional lineup of events.

Let’s celebrate the power of images!
