In 2025, we celebrate a significant milestone - the 50th anniversary of the University of Wollongong becoming an independent institution. 

To mark this occasion, we are delighted to invite you to the opening of 50 Artists: 50 Years, a captivating exhibition that celebrates the remarkable talent that has defined the University of Wollongong (UOW). 

This exhibition showcases works by 50 locally, nationally, and internationally recognised artists affiliated with UOW, including esteemed alumni and staff. 50 Artists: 50 Years highlights the vibrant diversity and significance of the UOW Art Collection, featuring a rich array of works that tell powerful stories of people, places, and connections. These stories have played a pivotal role in shaping the culture of UOW over the last five decades.

We look forward to seeing you there as we honour the past, celebrate the present, and inspire the future of the UOW art community.
