LODDON Arts Trail on Monday unveiled its 2024 theme - Seeing is Believing.
Popping up in towns on the first weekend of October, organisers say the “choose-your-own-direction” trail puts flair, imagination, colour and joy on the map.
This year’s trail opens with a free community barbeque and live music evening on October 4 in Tarnagulla.
Artists are opening their studios, cafes and halls are having pop-up exhibitions, and for the first time the stately Nimmitabel house in Inglewood opens its doors for visitors to see the staircase mural by Melbourne artist Shawn Lu and hear house-owner Lisa Calandro talk about the commission and the decade-long restoration of the house.
Julie Benaim, proprietor of 24 Karat café in Wedderburn is opening a new gallery space in time for Arts Trail, where artist Len Dierickx will be installing his work. “We’re really looking forward to the weekend, ready to welcome lots of visitors to our town and region,” Julie said.
“We love the way our community gets behind these events, so we’re proud to be part of Arts Trail and hope people come and enjoy Len’s new installation.”
Mayor Cr Gavan Holt said the program aimed to build connections right across the shire and the theme invited everyone to take a look at what’s on show.
