Take a walk down memory lane at a special exhibition that will open at Caloundra Regional Gallery tomorrow to celebrate the gallery’s 20th anniversary.

Artists have been doing it tough during COVID-19, but their passion and creativity hasn’t stopped, with the Sunshine Coast Art Prize 2020 receiving a record 711 entries.

Make a visit to Caloundra Regional Gallery a priority to experience a limited-time exhibition celebrating First Nations Peoples artwork that will be unveiled on Saturday, July 18.

With more than $40,000 in cash and prizes on offer, artists from across the country are encouraged to get their entries in for the Sunshine Coast Art Prize 2020, before submissions close tomorrow.

The arts play a pivotal role in the liveability and wellbeing of a community, and Sunshine Coast Arts Foundation and Sunshine Coast Council are launching a joint research project to understand what you value.

Caloundra Regional Gallery will reopen to the public on Wednesday, June 17 showcasing the stunning Johanna DeMaine: the form, the function, the aesthetic exhibition.

2020 has been unlike anything the Sunshine Coast has experienced before and the community response has been nothing short of inspirational, which is why Sunshine Coast Council has opened nominations for the 2021 Sunshine Coast Australia Day Awards earlier than usual.

High profile and experienced gallery director Tracy Cooper-Lavery will judge the Sunshine Coast Art Prize 2020 when it opens to the public in October.

To help keep our community informed, inspired and entertained during the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, Sunshine Coast Council has launched a new series of online programs and videos thanks to Caloundra Regional Gallery, Horizon Festival, Cultural Heritage, Living Smart and Sunshine Coast Libraries.

A remarkable exhibition celebrating the career of one of the Sunshine Coast’s, and Australia’s, most accomplished ceramicists, Johanna DeMaine, will open at Caloundra Regional Gallery on Friday, March 6.
