Shepparton Arts Festival

About Us Arts. Performance. Community. Connection. Shepparton Festival commissions, develops and presents a thrilling 2-week annual program of events encompassing performance, music, literature, visual arts and food. The Festival brings people together from all walks of life to celebrate our vibrant creative community. For two weeks in 2024, we will spill into familiar and unfamiliar spaces across the region as we continue our legacy as one of Victoria’s longest running arts festivals.. Our diverse program allows us to watch, listen, connect with and honour each other. For 27 years we’ve been passionate about giving artists a platform, paving the way for the Festival to be treasured locally and beyond. Our Vision A stellar arts festival that is locally treasured and valued beyond our region. Our Mission We support the development of a creative community whose members seek, see, hear, andspeak truths of all kinds, with an ever-empathetic heart, an unflinching eye, an open mind, and the readiness to listen and grow. In this way, we enable and encourage our community to participate in art that strengthens and unites, while stimulating reflection and growth. Our Culture We are creative, inclusive and courageous. We value the arts, our community, our diverse histories and our strengths. We value discourse and seek influences within and beyond Greater Shepparton that can help us understand, improve, and set and achieve our goals.
