The Counihan Gallery is Merri-bek City Council's free public gallery located in the heart of Brunswick, on Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung Country.
The Counihan Gallery opened in 1999 and is named in honour of the Australian artist and activist Noel Counihan (1913-1986), who was a champion of social justice and a vocal supporter of free speech.
Our exhibition program reflects our commitment to political activism, sustainability, and creative expression.
The Counihan Gallery acknowledges the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung people as the Traditional Owners and Custodians of the lands and waterways in the area known as Merri-bek. We recognise their continuous connection to culture, community and Country and embrace their traditional and contemporary cultural and creative expression. We pay our respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging, and to all First Nations people who are part of the community today.
