McClelland Sculpture Park + Gallery

McClelland collects and safeguards a rich cultural legacy and extensive art collection, while presenting a program of changing indoor and outdoor exhibitions with a focus on contemporary sculpture and its connection to nature. McClelland supports contemporary artists to develop, create and present their work, and manages a range of significant commission programs including the Southern Way McClelland Commissions.

Our innovative educational and public programs for people of all ages are a resource available for schools and the wider community. The programs inspire curiosity, inquiry, and community connection through a range of learning sessions facilitated by experienced educators and guides. Tailored to specific levels and aligned with key curriculum frameworks and subject areas, learning at McClelland offers opportunities to discover the sculpture collection, temporary exhibitions, First Nations cultural connections, and related hands-on workshops.

An important and unique aspect of McClelland is the group of three guilds whose studios are located on the grounds. These independent organisations cover a wide range of skills from painting and drawing, wood turning to spinning and weaving. They actively promote these activities to the wider community, through workshops, open days, and memberships, and in doing so they extend Harry and Annie May McClelland’s vision of an artistic centre for the wider Frankston and Mornington Peninsula region.

We are committed to working with our local and regional community, partnering with arts and community organisations, and supporting art practice in a sustainable way.
