Mural Hall, the iconic ballroom built in 1932, and noted by the National Trust as ‘one of the finest Art Deco interiors in Australia’, is also considered one of the world’s finest examples of art deco. The former ballroom and dining room is named for ten marvellous murals painted by Napier Waller in 1934. Sidney Myer, founder of the Myer Emporium was renowned for innovation and it was he who commissioned the murals to pay homage to the Seasons and to Women and their achievements through history in the areas of art, opera, literature, dance and fashion.

In the tradition of tea in the Salon, resident curator from NGV – Kenneth Parks will speak on the history of the Murals whilst you are entertained by Jazz and Shiraz.

Dine on exquisite tea sandwiches, moreish savoury tarts, freshly baked scones, jam and cream, petite éclairs and assorted sweet pastries. Rich hot chocolate, freshly brewed coffee and artisan teas served from art deco tea trolleys will complete the experience.

Congratulations Melita your the winner.
