Marks for Mundaring

Marks for Mundaring is a new exhibition being held from Saturday 11 April to Sunday 14 June at Mundaring Arts Centre. Marks for Mundaring is a collection survey that celebrates 40 years of creative practice and the enduring contribution of local artists who document the artistic and cultural shifts of the Shire of Mundaring. Since acquiring its first artwork in 1986, the Shire of Mundaring has supported local artists and craftspeople by presenting an annual acquisition exhibition. Held in partnership with Mundaring Arts Centre Inc., this event has provided an opportunity for local artists and audiences to come together in recognition and appreciation of the community’s outstanding creative talents. Marks for Mundaring presents a selection of artworks acquired between 1986 and 2026 that respond to the natural and cultivated environment of the Perth Hills, sharing works that explore ideas of place, ownership, loss, displacement and belonging. The Collection works will be displayed alongside ephemera, publications and works for sale by Collection artists.
