REDLAND Art Gallery’s acclaimed Create Exchange program has secured another three years of philanthropic backing and will return under a new name.
The artist residency, exhibition and activation program will become Visualising Redlands, an arts placemaking project, with a renewed focus on using arts and creativity to strengthen communities and support cultural and tourism outcomes across Redlands Coast.
Acting Mayor Julie Talty said the new phase built on the success of Create Exchange, which began in 2024.
“Redland Art Gallery will deliver a new artist-led placemaking initiative designed to support cultural, community and tourism outcomes across Redlands Coast,” Cr Talty said.
The multi-year project is being supported by Haymans Electrical and Data Suppliers, with Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art to act as a strategic partner supporting delivery across participating Queensland galleries.
Create Exchange has brought a series of major Quandamooka-led exhibitions to the gallery.
Arts, Culture and Heritage portfolio representative Paul Bishop said the new program would also include two funded Strategic Doing workshops.
