The White Hat Guide to Mildura, Wimmera & Mallee

 

 

This area includes Red Cliffs, Merbein, Ouyen and Swan Hill.

Mildura Arts Centre Gallery

On our last visit to this gallery (June 2002) there was a disappointingly small range of works on display (lack of space?). However, the visit was certainly worthwhile because of the fascinating Rio Vista. The grounds of the gallery also contain a significant collection of sculpture from 1960 - 1980.
