The Benalla Street Art Festival 2025 was a blast!
The streets were buzzing with color, creativity, and culture, making it a weekend to remember. But guess what? We’re already gearing up for Benalla Street Art Festival 2026!
Save the Date: 17 – 19 April 2026.
Benalla’s been rocking the street art scene since 2015, and this year was no exception. With 85 epic murals already gracing our walls, we added 10 more jaw-dropping pieces to our collection. Festival Curator, Eddie Zammit, brought 10 of the best street artists in the business, infusing fresh energy and diverse stories into every corner of the Rural City.
The festival wasn’t just about the art; it was about the community vibe. The streets were alive with fringe events, interactive activities, and endless fun. It was the perfect chance to see the art in everything, uncover hidden gems, and dive deep into the creative culture of regional Victoria.
Event date: Saturday 28 March 2026

Saltbush Country provides a rare opportunity for audiences across regional South Australia to experience the works and worldviews of Aboriginal women artists practising independently in the state. In this statewide touring exhibition, seven regional artists tell stories of their culture, community and connection to Country. Often personal and occasionally raw, their work reflects the world as seen through their eyes – a contemporary articulation of Aboriginal life in regional South Australia.
Saltbush Country, curated by Tarnanthi Regional Curator Marika Davies, was one of the highlight exhibitions of Tarnanthi 2023 when it was presented at Port Pirie Regional Art Gallery and in Adelaide at the Kerry Packer Civic Gallery at the Hawke Centre, UniSA City West campus.
Artists: Josephine Lennon, Marli Macumba, Juanella McKenzie, Deanna Newchurch, Lynette Newchurch, Sandra Saunders, Heather Shearer
The artists’ works are the result of a series of community workshops, mentoring and professional development opportunities catering for prominent regional artists and supported by Country Arts SA and Tarnanthi.
