As part of the transition to the new building, SAM is looking to audit and catalogue its library of art books and magazines to make it available to the community to access and use as a resource at the SAM Library in the new building.
SAM is working with GV Libraries on this project and is hoping to find suitable volunteers to work with us on this project.
Volunteers will need to have some experience in cataloguing or auditing and are preferably available from now until December 2020 on a part time basis.
The construction of the new Shepparton Art Museum next to Victoria Lake is well underway with completion of the project expected in December 2020.
New SAM will act as a cultural meeting place creating connectivity to indigenous and multicultural origins of the region's heritage, while providing the opportunity to interaction through art, food, enjoyment and educational experiences.
In the meantime, the Shepparton Art Museum is business as usual as it continues to present an exciting range of exhibitions and programs that engage audiences.
If you are keen to know more, or think you might have time and skills to spare, please contact Katie Zeller at SAM on 5832 9861.
