Riverlinks in conjunction with Shepparton Art Museum are offering local artists and community groups an opportunity to showcase their work in the foyer at Riverlinks Eastbank.
The current exhibition, Meeting Place: Art From Many Lands, Lives & Cultures, has been curated by Multicultural Arts Victoria. The exhibition features the work of 12 artists from First Peoples and culturally diverse communities living in and around Shepparton.
The exhibition includes photography, paintings, fashion and drawings that speak of lands, lives and cultures all the way from Yorta Yorta country to the far reaches of Afghanistan and runs for six weeks from 5 April– 14 May.
