About the Show
THE BIRREGURRA ART SHOW WAS STARTED IN 1992 AS A FUNDRAISING INITIATIVE BY THE LOCAL BIRREGURRA PRIMARY SCHOOL PARENTS (AND THE ENCOURAGEMENT OF THE ART TEACHER). THE CHILDREN’S ART AND CERAMICS WERE EXHIBITED ALONG WITH THE WORK OF ARTISTS FROM AROUND THE REGION AND THE SHOW BECAME AN ANNUAL SOCIAL FEATURE FOR THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY. IT HAS EVOLVED OVER THE YEARS TO BECOME AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE LOCAL COMMUNITY CALENDAR, AND A MAJOR ATTRACTION FOR BIRREGURRA.
“Our aim is to contribute to our community’s appreciation of art and celebration of creativity, to provide a platform for all artists to exhibit works, showcasing diverse and stimulating art forms with a regional emphasis, and to reinvest in the community to encourage engagement in the arts.”
