The Queensland Art Fund was organized by Vida Lahey and Daphne Mayo to promote public interest in the Queensland Art Gallery. Through purchases and gifts, the Fund acquired paintings, books and a collection of 2000 photographs given by the Carnegie Corporation, New York. When Art Fund activities ceased, the collections were divided among the Queensland Art Gallery, the Queensland University and other public bodies.
