The Visitor Centre is also launching ceramic coffee cups and mugs featuring the wonderful art from the talented winners of the contest. Now locals and visitors will have the opportunity to take home a creative piece of our small towns.

Council encourages community members and visitors to head down to the Visitor Centre and discover the amazing local talent representing the region.

Greater Shepparton City Council Mayor, Councillor Shane Sali, congratulated the winners of the contest and invited residents to visit the exhibition and enjoy the artwork from our local artists.
