Hindi-speaking residents in Melbourne’s west will have an opportunity to explore the work of acclaimed artist Hayley Millar Baker through a dedicated language tour at Wyndham Art Gallery this month.
The free Hindi-language exhibition tour will take place on Saturday 13 June at 11am at Wyndham Art Gallery in Werribee, offering visitors a guided introduction to Hayley Millar Baker’s major solo exhibition, Selected Works.
The 60-minute tour will be led by local writer Jasmeet Sahi and is designed to make the exhibition more accessible to Hindi-speaking audiences across Melbourne’s growing Indian community. Organisers say the session will provide insight into the artworks and the themes explored throughout the exhibition.
Millar Baker is a Gunditjmara, Djabwurrung and Anglo-Indian artist based in Melbourne’s outer western suburbs. Her work has gained recognition for examining identity, family history and lived experience through photography, moving image and installation practices.
The exhibition tour forms part of Wyndham Art Gallery’s efforts to broaden community engagement and encourage participation from culturally and linguistically diverse audiences. By offering guided experiences in community languages, the gallery aims to create more opportunities for residents to connect with contemporary Australian art.
Wyndham’s western suburbs are home to a rapidly growing Indian-Australian population, making Hindi-language cultural events increasingly important for community participation. The guided tour provides an opportunity for visitors who may be more comfortable engaging in Hindi to learn about the artist’s work in a familiar setting.
The exhibition is being held at Wyndham Art Gallery, located at 177 Watton Street, Werribee. Attendance is free, although bookings are encouraged through Wyndham City.

Support Independent Community Journalism
Dear Reader,The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.
We operate independently.
