Garrison brings together historical and contemporary perspectives on conflict, service, and resilience through the City of Townsville Art Collection.
Featuring approximately 70 works, the exhibition spans from Douglas Green’s evocative wartime paintings to powerful contemporary interpretations by Tim Page, George Gittoes, and Jon Cattapan. Honouring our local military and Air Force personnel, these works explore themes of memory, sacrifice, and the human experience of war, offering a profound dialogue across generations.
Presented during the Anzac period, Garrison invites reflection on the enduring impact of military history and its representation in art.
Friday 27 November 2025
Doors open at 6pm with official speeches to commence at 6:30pm
Free, no bookings required.
To help our younger patrons better engage with the exhibition, Pinnacles Gallery will feature a dedicated kid's space. Along with simple craft activities, the gallery will also play host to a display from the Army Museum North Queensland, showing artifacts from Townsville's military past. This space will be available for the duration of the exhibition.
Townsville Art Gallery would like to thank the Army Museum North Queensland for their participation in this exhibition.
