The Andy Warhol works are a long-term loan from the National Gallery of Australia with support from the Australian Government as part of Sharing the National Collection initiative. The partnership will see the Wanneroo Regional Gallery display over 50 artworks by Andy Warhol over a two-year period, with a small selection of pieces on display and rotated every three months.
A new selection of Warhol's Mick Jagger series are currently exhibited in a small section of the Gallery alongside the City’s main exhibition.

Songlines, or Dreaming tracks, map the routes of Ancestral beings as they travelled across Australia, creating the land and its people.
allows audiences of all ages to immerse themselves in a space where paintings come to life, stories are visualised, and ancient knowledge is shared in a striking and artistic way.
Surrender your understandings of time and space, and experience Indigenous storytelling as this ancient narrative comes alive through new technology.
Accompanying the exhibition, the City also has a series of Seven Sister story works on display, which were kindly loaned from the Kerry Stokes Collection, Janet Holmes á Court Collection and Gilbert George Collection.
