Welcome to ArtsBridge 2019

"Every time you show your work, you really show your soul." ~ Mirka Mora.

ArtsBridge is back for it's thirteenth year! We're here to exhibit and advocate for local artists and surrounds. This year we are excited to be showcasing some of the up-and-coming artists, as well as continue our support and passion for recognised and established artists.  Thank you to all who continue to support  our art show which fundraises for the arts program of Hurstbridge Primary School. We always have a fabulous night and this year will be no exception. We will be open for three days in 2019. Our opening night is on the Friday, 23rd August 2019 and conclude at 4pm on Wattle Festival day, so save the date! Tickets to the opening gala will be released in June and we can't wait to see all emerging and established artists. Artists Registrations will open soon, so watch this space! ~ Artsbridge team 2019.
