Designed by John Wardle Architects in association with Hassell, the Samstag Museum is located in the Hawke Building and features three substantial and elegant exhibition galleries over two levels. It is a facility that communicates architectural distinction.
The Anne & Gordon Samstag Museum of Art has been named in honour of these two distinguished benefactors to Australian culture, whose remarkable bequest is administered by the Samstag Program through the University of South Australia.
