The Albanese Labor Government has today announced the appointment of Mr Sam Edwards as Chair of Bundanon Trust for a three-year term.

Bundanon Trust is an Australian cultural institution and living arts centre that supports the arts through its residency, education, exhibition and performance programs.

The Bundanon collection and properties were gifted in trust to the Commonwealth in 1993 by renowned Australian artist Arthur Boyd and his wife Yvonne.

Mr Sam Edwards is a well-respected member of the Shoalhaven community, who brings a wealth of knowledge and skills to the role, having served as a Director of the Bundanon Trust since 2018.

Minister for the Arts, Tony Burke, said the appointment of Mr Edwards will provide strong leadership for the Bundanon Trust and enhance the future of this important National Collecting Institution.

"Anyone who's been to Bundanon knows just how special its connection to culture, the land and Australia's arts history is. I look forward to Sam strengthening and deepening that special connection in this new role."
