The Gallery houses the State Art Collection, which includes one of the world’s finest collections of Indigenous art, the pre-eminent collection of Western Australian art and design, as well as Australian and International art and design.

The museum houses only a small collection of silver, but one of the highlights is a wonderful silver-mounted and enamel triptych by Edith and Nelson Dawson, assayed at London in 1904.
