We are excited to announce that the Living My Best Life Art Exhibition will tour the state.
The touring exhibition is a partnership with Libraries Tasmania and will showcase the work of 19 emerging, mid-career and established Tasmanian artists with disability.
This touring exhibition is free, and everyone is welcome to attend.
About the exhibition
Living My Best Life Art Exhibition celebrates the creativity and individuality of Tasmanians with disability. Artists from across the state explore what it means to live their best life in ways that are meaningful to them. It reminds us that a good life looks different to everyone.
Artworks range from quiet and contemplative to bold and expressive, across diverse artistic practices such as printmaking, writing, music, painting, photography, design, digital media, sculpture, and textiles.
