Celebrate the West Australian Society of Arts’ 130th Annual Art Exhibition. Where Art Began – The City of South Perth holds a special place in Western Australia’s artistic history.
It was here that the Wilgie Sketching Club first met, an informal gathering of artists inspired by the landscape and light of the river foreshore. From these early sketching days grew the West Australian Society of Arts, now the oldest art society in Western Australia. For over 130 years, this shared connection has fostered creativity, community, and a deep respect for artistic tradition.
Today, the Society continues its founding vision through its enduring motto: Encourage • Educate • Exhibit
Please note that this event is not hosted by the City.
