HENSON GALLERY

30 BANQUET | 60 THEATRE & COCKTAIL

One of Melbourne's most breathtaking private dining rooms, the Henson Gallery houses ONEIROI, a permanent exhibition by Australian photographer Bill Henson.


The opulent feel of the space is complemented by the artist's use of lighting, creating an atmospheric environment bridging the gap between dream and reality.

​

The Henson Gallery is located on the second floor of the Hellenic Museum and can seat up to 60 guests.

M-PAVILION +
EASTERN COURTYARD

120 BANQUET | 180 THEATRE | 500 COCKTAIL (50 MIN.)

The M-Pavilion, designed by architect Sean Godsell,
won the 2015 Australian Institute of Architects award before relocating to the gardens of the Hellenic Museum. 

​

Now residing in the centre of the Museum's leafy courtyard, this private garden oasis is hidden away from the hustle and bustle of Melbourne's Law & Business District behind an evergreen hedge. 

​

Together, the M-Pavilion and eastern courtyard is a versatile space that can host occasions ranging from cocktail functions and intimate weddings, to seated dinners and theatre style events of up to 500 guests. 

IRIS ROOM

10 BANQUET

The Messenger is a spectacular work by internationally renowned Australian artist Sam Jinks. Inspired by the Greek goddess from the west pediment of the Parthenon, Jinks' Iris is on permanent display at the Hellenic Museum.

 

Kneeling before a black, reflective pool, the Iris Room ensures a unique and intimate dining experience unlike any other. Share the room with ethereal Greek mythology and experience the divide between the contemporary and the ancient recede. Suitable for a small party of 10 guests.
