The Shepparton Art Museum (SAM) is an art museum in Shepparton, Victoria, Australia. Established in 1936 as the Shepparton Art Gallery, the collection lacked a purpose-built gallery until the current $50 million building opened in 2021. SAM holds over 4,000 artworks, including one of the largest ceramic art collections in Australia. The building also hosts the Greater Shepparton Visitor Centre; Kaiela Arts, a studio for Aboriginal artists; an outdoor amphitheatre and the Art Hill café.
