The Victorian Artists Society, which can trace its establishment to 1856 in Melbourne, promotes artistic education, art classes and gallery hire exhibition in Australia.

The Victorian Artists Society was formed in March 1888 following the decision of the Victorian Academy of Arts and the Australian Artists' Association to amalgamate. The Victorian Academy of Arts had been formed in 1870 with 'about twenty artists and amateurs' amongst its first members. The Academy's forerunner, the Victorian Society of Fine Arts, was established in 1856. The Australian Artists' Association held its first exhibition in 1886 with works by Tom Roberts, Louis Buvelot, Frederick McCubbin, and Arthur Streeton.
