About Us
MAGNET Galleries Melbourne is a not-for-profit social enterprise and registered charity that champions photography by offering exhibitions, educational events, and creative collaborations both locally and internationally. Based in The District, Docklands, our vibrant venue not only features photography exhibitions and a creative library/bookshop but also provides fine art printing services through our dynamic partner, Photonet. We are dedicated to fostering excellence among photographers while nurturing broader artistic engagements and community initiatives.



Where Stories Live
We are a home for visual storytellers. Here, documentary photography is not only displayed—it is preserved, contextualised, and respected. Every image represents a lived experience, a truth captured in time. We exist to elevate these narratives and connect them with audiences who seek deeper meaning.
