Embassy by artist Richard Bell is a space for activism and dialogue in support of Aboriginal and indigenous land rights activated through a series of public events and conversations.

Artist Richard Bell and curator Carin Kuoni discuss his journey from activist to artist, and how his work and his role in the Aboriginal art community shapes the discourse on Indigenous and human rights in Australia and beyond.

For many Indigenous peoples of Asia, the climate crisis is existential. Please join us for an expert panel to discuss these issues and more.

Our signature monthly happy hour features free museum admission and guided tours of the exhibition, drink specials, DJ, and opportunities to make new connections.
