The Malvern Artists’ Society was formed in 1957, and is a non-profit, self - supporting organization whose prime aim is the promotion, enjoyment and teaching of art.

The Society has its own premises, well located in the Melbourne suburb of Malvern, about 8 km from the city. The building includes a well equipped modern gallery of two rooms, a well lit studio used for a variety of art classes, a kitchen and a general office.

Over the years, Malvern Artists’ Society has been home to many of Victoria’s prominent artists. It was also one of the forerunners in providing suburban art classes in oil, pastel, watercolor, and mixed media.

Throughout the year, there are frequent exhibitions of members’ work and a number of private shows by artists who hire the gallery from time to time.
