About
Samstag Museum of Art, also known as Samstag Museum or simply Samstag, is a contemporary art museum in Adelaide, South Australia. Part of Adelaide University, the museum is open to the public and has free admission.
The museum was opened in October 2007 as the Anne & Gordon Samstag Museum of Art, in the Hawke Building of the City West campus of the University of South Australia, which is now part of Adelaide University. The gallery had existed in previous incarnations from about 1977, with several names and locations over the next 30 years. In 1991, with the establishment of the University of South Australia, the gallery was renamed the University of South Australia Art Museum, relocating to City West in 1998. Following the merger between the University of South Australia and the University of Adelaide, Samstag became part of the newly-established Adelaide University.
