The building is of an open and elegant design which reflects and interacts with the surrounding natural environment. It is an exciting addition to the architecture of Canberra and is sited alongside the High Court and the National Gallery of Australia near the edge of Lake Burley Griffin. The National Portrait Gallery has been honoured by multiple industry awards and expressions of recognition for architecture. The National Portrait Gallery's function spaces can be tailored to suit your conference, seminar or forum. The flexibility of the Terrace Room allows you to comfortably cater for large gatherings or intimate meetings.
