The With Friends Benefit was a celebration of forty years of impact and philanthropy at Gertrude. The unique one-off fundraising event was held at St Saviour's Church of Exiles and we are thankful for the generosity of our hosts Noel Fermanis and Megan Ponsford.
The Gertrude Editions were initiated in 2002 to raise funds in support of Gertrude and to promote the connection between current studio artists and previous generations of leading Australian artists who have held studios or exhibitions at Gertrude. The Gertrude Editions are held in numerous major private and institutional collections including the Museum of Contemporary Art, National Gallery of Victoria, Monash University Museum of Art and Geelong Gallery.
