Welcome

Delivering the Best Art Show in 2019

Last year the Camberwell Art Show was an outstanding success and lived up to its reputation as Australia's largest and preeminent art event. Our planning for this our 54th year is directed on building on this success and eclipsing the 2018 result. We will provide a strong platform for artists to sell their works as well as an outstanding gallery experience for our 4000 guests over the ten day event.

The show moves one week forward in the 2019 calendar with the Gala Opening on Friday 28th June 2019. It is open to the public for the following 8 days - Sat 29th June to Sunday 7th July.

A record number of entries have been received from 775 artists from throughout Australia. From these entries our selection panel had the tough task of selecting 1320 paintings to be exhibited.

A focus on maintaining the highest quality of the exhibition in terms of display presentation and paintings exhibited will again underpin the event. This objective is aided by the magnificent venue - the steel and glass ATC Building which is generously provided by Swinburne University which is converted into 4 galleries to professionally display the works.

Melbourne artist and 2019 demonstrating artist Lisa Wang had good cause to be pleased last year as she sold her work "Barista". Pictured here Lisa celebrates with our our Artists Convenor Brenda Innes.
