The Tastes of Art Prize is a valuable way to gain experience showing work publicly, receive feedback and build confidence in presenting work in a gallery setting.
We hope this feedback is helpful and encourage artists to continue developing and exhibiting their work in future exhibitions.
Something big is brewing for 2027…
Our 10th Anniversary Tastes of Art Prize is going next‑level!
We can’t wait to see you at our next event so save these in your calendar.
We are thrilled to share that Tommy McRae (Yakaduna), a Wiradjuri Elder from Lake Moodemere, has been inducted into the Victorian History Hall of Fame. The Royal Historical Society of Victoria announced the induction of Tommy McRae, also known as Yakaduna, into the Victorian History Hall of Fame.
Though he could neither read nor write, his artwork serves as a vital historical record.
As a First Nations storyteller from Lake Moodemere, Tommy created vivid, invaluable artworks that portrayed his Country, the native animals, the landscape, his people, and his times with remarkable depth.
His drawings brilliantly captured the social relationships of his era, illustrating the unique challenges Indigenous and non-Indigenous people faced when relating to one another.
This is a proud moment for the entire border district! Click below to read his official citation and learn more about his incredible legacy.
