HERE + NOW 2026 | Artists from the Region

Childers Arts Space

12 September - 8 November

Now in its eighth year, HERE + NOW 2026 celebrates the depth, diversity and creativity of artists living and working across the Bundaberg Region.

Showcasing a breadth of contemporary visual arts practice, the exhibition highlights the strength of our vibrant creative community and offers a timely reflection on what it means to live, make, connect and belong in this region today.

More than an annual showcase, this exhibition is a celebration of regional artistic excellence and a testament to the enduring vitality of the Bundaberg Region's visual arts community.

Through diverse practices, materials and ideas, the participating artists contribute to an ongoing conversation about place, belonging and the contemporary experience of regional Queensland.
