National Works on Paper 2026 is showing at Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery from 5 September to 22 November. For a practical visit, use the gallery’s regular Tuesday-to-Sunday window, 11am to 4pm, and allow the exhibition to set the pace rather than crowding it into another stop.

The gallery is at Civic Reserve, Dunns Road, Mornington. Mondays sit outside the regular opening schedule. Before travelling, check the official exhibition page and the gallery home page for any date-specific change to normal hours.

This note is deliberately narrow: it confirms the exhibition dates, location and regular opening hours from MPRG’s own pages. It does not make claims about tickets, availability, individual works or the best time to visit.
