From May to July 2025, 1,125 contributions from more than 1,000 community members helped shape the direction of Maitland Regional Art Gallery’s (MRAG) programs and services. We asked what you love, what you want more of and what new ideas we should explore.

Thank you for taking the time to complete our survey or contribute to our vision board. Find out what we heard from our community by reading the engagement outcomes snapshot in the document library.

Your input will help shape the MRAG 2030 Business Plan, an internal resource for gallery staff which will guide how we deliver cultural, education and tourism services for our growing community and visitors over the next five years.

Your feedback will also help shape our draft Community Infrastructure Strategy, our long-term guide for community infrastructure provision, which will go on public exhibition in December 2025.
