See the thought provoking photographic works of Walkley Awards finalists, reflecting on the year in news through Australia’s best photographers.

This unique exhibition features the works of finalists in the Walkley Awards for Excellence in Photojournalism, which recognise the work of photographers across a range of categories and genres, from news and sport to portraiture and photographic essays. 

The Walkley Awards since 1956 are the highest honour in Australian journalism and now include 30 categories.

You'll be transported and moved seeing key moments in time; some are a split second, others have months of research and trust-building. See the world through the incredible eye of Australia's best photographers where the smallest story can be as compelling as the largest.
