There’s Good Trouble going on right now at Eastside Gallery. The gallery’s annual Multicultural Exhibition is on now until 26 February and features the work of 19 artists. While the phrase originated in the American Civil Rights Movement, local artists were invited to approach the theme in any way they liked. A huge variety of artistic Good Trouble is in the show, from graffiti art to works that respond to environmental destruction, the dawn raids, the Northern Lights, pretty pests, India’s Salt March, Chile’s Mapuche conflict and much more.
You can visit the gallery without touching anything or coming within 2 metres of anyone – our doors are wide open and there’s plenty of room. The Mini Gallery is also full of artworks by local artists, most priced under $100. There’s lots to see from a visit to Linwood Arts and we would love to see you!
