Year Round Events

Fostering A Supportive Community

The Pop-Up Project’s open studio trail is the highlight event for the collective each year, held on the June long weekend.  An opportunity for artists and creatives to open their studios and welcome the public into their homes, studios and galleries.  Allowing art enthusiasts to explore and appreciate their work, right where it is created.

The Pop-Up project organises and creates various events and activities throughout the year. From training and mentoring sessions for artists to group exhibitions and networking events, there seems to be a range of opportunities for both artists and individuals who appreciate creativity. This inclusive approach allows anyone with an interest in being creative or admiring stunning artwork to get involved and engage with your community.

Maintaining a year-round schedule of events and fostering a supportive community can contribute to the growth and development of artists while also nurturing a broader appreciation for the arts within our community. Pop-Up Project with local businesses are dedication to promoting creativity and providing opportunities for artistic exploration and engagement.
