Planning is underway among Arts Mid North Coast’s Shared Practice cohort, as they begin developing work for their January 2028 culminating group exhibition. Artist mentors and mentees gathered at the Charles Sturt University Innovation Hub in Port Macquarie on October 11 to share ideas and inspiration.
The exhibition, set to be held at Yarilla Arts & Museum (YAM) in Coffs Harbour, will call together mentors and mentees in a collaborative presentation of work, marking the end of an 18-month journey of creative connection and professional development.
Shared Practice supports emerging and mid-career visual artists through a program of mentorship, professional development workshops and peer exchange, culminating in a final group exhibition. Designed specifically for regional artists, the initiative creates space for participants to deepen their practice, connect with peers and develop sustainable creative careers while remaining based on the Mid North Coast.
Shared Practice is an initiative of Arts Mid North Coast, supported by Creative Australia and Create NSW, in partnership with Yarrila Arts & Museum, Glasshouse Gallery and Nulla Nulla Regional Art Gallery.
