Exhibit in your Local Gallery

Tablelands Regional Council is inviting applications for 2026 exhibitions in their three galleries.

‘Groups and individuals can apply to exhibit in the Tableland Regional Gallery, Old Post Office Gallery and Foyer Gallery,’ said Mayor Rod Marti.

‘We’re keen to see applications from artists and curators at all stages of their practice and from across our diverse Tablelands community.

‘We’re hosting an information session for potential exhibitors at 10am Saturday 22 March at Tableland Regional Gallery.

‘We’ll cover the application process and exhibition planning, and there will be a presentation by Helen Hume and Alison Faigniez from the Gallery Hanging Team,’ Mayor Marti said.

Marnie Hutchinson Awram’s exhibition Quiet was displayed at Tableland Regional Gallery in 2024.

‘Exhibiting at Tableland Regional Gallery was a fabulous opportunity for myself as an artist to build my confidence, networks and sense of place, after moving to the Tablelands a few years ago.

‘I chose to explore our landscape and how we interact with the pristine wilderness in this region.

‘The ideation process involved walking into these areas and translating what I experienced into the narrative of storytelling in my artworks.

‘This built a great connection for me and helped me feel embedded and engaged with the local area.

‘The feedback I received goes a long way to building my confidence as an artist and the bigger connection that we are contributing something to the collective stories of our community.

‘Along the way I built friendships and was supported by some wonderful people in the art community.

‘The Galleries Officer and very professional install team made my experience seamless and fun.

‘I intend to apply for another exhibition at the Tableland Regional Gallery, as for me it was a highly successful experience,’ Ms Awram said.

Applications must be received by 5pm Wednesday 30 April and exhibition, gallery and application information is available at trc.qld.gov.au/galleries.
