Join us at a special event for emerging and early-career curators as part of Art Up Late during Sydney Festival 2025. This evening offers a rare opportunity to discuss curatorial practices and hear from MAG&M’s curators about their approach to programming. 

Engage in a casual gathering with peers, satisfy curiosities in an Ask Me Anything session, and reflect on the state of contemporary curating. Don't miss this chance to connect with fellow curators in a harbour-side setting.

Enjoy refreshments with a glass from our wine sponsor, Little Ripples.

Art Up Late Series

Drop in to enjoy a welcome drink and walking conversation through The Water Understands exhibition at Manly Art Gallery & Museum, supported by Sydney Festival.

Exhibition: The Water Understands

This event is on during The Water Understands exhibition, a contemporary interrogation of water as a life-giving element, whose importance to humanity has been examined from multiple angles for thousands of years. Artists make work about it, scientists experiment with it, and poets write about it.
