Bequests

By giving to Maitland Regional Art Gallery you are helping the Gallery grow now and into the future

In 2021, the Gallery recently received a generous bequest by collectors and philanthropists Gordon Elliott and Michael Eyes. This will have a significant impact on the Gallery and the community for many years to come.

Knowing that our collection and estate will contribute to the ongoing commissioning of art and artists into the future is a great feeling. Maitland Regional Art Gallery is the perfect institution to take on the responsibility for the administration of our Collection. We look forward to an ongoing relationship with the Gallery for many years to come and feel that our legacy will live on and be an exciting contribution to artists and the Gallery’s community. – Gordon Elliott and Michael Eyes
