McClelland Sculpture Park and Gallery
Paul MERCURIO (Hastings) (19:15): (898) My adjournment matter this evening is for the Minister for Planning, and the action I seek is for the minister to come down to my electorate to meet with Lisa Byrne, the CEO of the fabulous McClelland Sculpture Park and Gallery in Langwarrin. The gallery opened in 1971 and features the first bespoke modernist gallery designed by architects Munro and Sargent. It is an absolutely wonderful space to visit and to walk around to look at all of the amazing sculptures – over 100, but not all are on display at once. You can also go inside and see some of the wonderful art exhibitions or have a coffee or lunch at Harry’s Cafe. It is a truly unique gallery based in the heart of Langwarrin. They have some terrific plans for building a sustainable future for art and culture in my electorate, which I would like to share with the minister. I look forward to the minister’s visit.
