The former post office building

The Post Office Gallery is an art gallery in Ballarat, Victoria, Australia.

The former Ballarat Post Office is located on the corner of Sturt and Lydiard Streets. Classified by Heritage Victoria it was built during William Wardell's tenure as Inspector-General and Chief Architect of the Public Works Department.[1] The Ballarat Post Office was the largest of its kind after the Melbourne General Post Office.[2]

In 2002 the Ballarat Post Office became part of the University of Ballarat Arts Academy which includes the Post Office Gallery.
