The Australian Pavilion invigilation program is a professional development opportunity open to Australian citizens, based in Europe or the United Kingdom. The program provides development and employment opportunities for Australian’s based abroad during this challenging time.

Participants will:

• advance their skills in exhibition invigilation and arts administration;
• be exposed to different approaches to contemporary visual arts practice; and
• build networks that aim to foster future collaborations and exchanges.

The Venice project team will work with participants to co-design additional professional development activities to expand upon the invigilation experience of the Australian Pavilion.
