Elizabeth Macgregor will explain how MCA-Australia became the most visited Museum of Contemporary Art in the World.

After two transformational decades at the helm of The Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA), Elizabeth Ann Macgregor OBE, ended her tenure as Director October 2021.

When Elizabeth Ann Macgregor left the MCA Australia in October 2021, MCA Chairman, Lorraine Tarabay, said Ms Macgregor left an enormous legacy. “Liz Ann is a visionary who has expertly steered the Museum from the brink of insolvency when she arrived to the vibrant, thriving organisation The Art Newspaper has declared the most visited contemporary art museum in the world,” she said.
“During her tenure, the MCA expanded to include the National Centre for Creative Learning (NCCL) and increased its audience more than tenfold. The Museum is renowned globally for its curatorial excellence, putting artists at the centre of all it does.
