Vic Park Open Studios
21 & 22 March 2026
Vic Park Open Studios invites the community to step inside the creative process of local artists, see them at work, and even purchase artworks directly from the makers themselves! Local artists will be opening their studios, galleries, and creative spaces to the public for a glimpse into their world.
For artists, it’s a fantastic opportunity to connect with the local community, showcase their current body of work, and reach new audiences. For visitors, it’s an inspiring way to discover the artistic talent thriving in the Town of Vic Park.

What if I don't have a studio?
We understand that many artists work from various locations, whether it's a kitchen table, a corner of a room, or anywhere else that inspires creativity. We encourage you to set up a small “working space,” complete with a demo or display of your arts practice. Alternatively, artists are welcome to share their studio or exhibition spaces located within the Town of Victoria Park (creating a 'hub' - see below). We also encourage artists to reach out to local community spaces and businesses who may be open to hosting.
What is a 'hub' or 'home hub'?
As part of Open Studios, individual artists can elect to be part of a 'hub' and join together with other artists who are part of the program. Artists will join at a central 'home hub' for the Open Studios weekend to display their work and creative process.
What do I present to the public during Open Studios?
During Open Studios, the artists present their creative process, tools, and work-in-progress pieces to give visitors an inside look at how their art is made. They can also showcase finished works, share the stories behind their inspiration, and demonstrate techniques to help visitors appreciate the effort and skill involved. While artists can sell their work during the tour, it remains an open studio rather than a marketplace, emphasising the authentic, behind-the-scenes experience of the artist’s studio practice. The goal is to provide an engaging, educational, and inspiring visit that highlights the creative process.
Can I sell my artworks from my studio?
Yes! You can sell your artworks out of your studio during Open Studios.
Do I need to keep my studio open for the whole weekend of Open Studios?
Yes, to be eligible to participate in Open Studios, you must commit to being present and having your studio open to the public from 10am-4pm on both Saturday 21 March and Sunday 22 March 2026.
