Arts Season
Arts Season is a highly anticipated highlight within our Town's events program, dedicated to celebrating the thriving creative community. This enriching program encompasses a wide array of artistic endeavours, including visual arts, creative workshops, comedy, music, art tours, films, and engaging activities for youth and young children.
Since its inception in 2016, Arts Season has become a well-established fixture on our public events calendar, breathing new life into how we showcase the arts in our community. One of the key features of this initiative is our grants program, which encourages arts and community groups to participate by organising their own projects within the larger program.
Our annual Arts Season is open to the entire community, encouraging attendees to share their ideas and actively contribute to this fantastic cultural initiative. Not only does Arts Season foster community spirit, but it also plays a crucial role in reinforcing the Town of Victoria Park's reputation as a nationally and internationally renowned hub, celebrated for its connected and engaged community, outstanding services, vibrant events, visitor attractions, and healthy lifestyle opportunities.
