About This Event
Visit Anzac Square Memorial Galleries between 6-23 January to see the colourful Venetian glass mosaic created by late Brisbane artist, Don Ross. Entry is free.
This powerful tribute to the men and women who served in World War II is only revealed twice per year – in January (to coincide with the artist's birthday) and during Brisbane Open House. It features an astounding 140,000 hand cut Smalti Tessera (Venetian glass) tiles.
Anzac Square Memorial Galleries is open 10am-4pm, Sunday to Friday (closed Saturdays and public holidays).
Visitors can stay to explore the Memorial Galleries - embarking on an interactive journey from the First World War to today, before taking time to reflect on the remarkable stories of bravery and sacrifice in the tranquil parklands.
Anzac Square Memorial Galleries is located at 285 Ann Street, Brisbane. Entry is through the double brass doors located beneath the Shrine of Remembrance.
