The exhibition features 83 submissions from artists and creatives living or working in the Goulburn Valley and Hume regions, with each work reflecting the artists’ unique responses to the theme of ‘home’.

The exhibition celebrates and showcases the creativity of the regions’ artistic community, featuring a diverse range of styles and approaches, including landscapes, portraiture and sculpture.

SAM Open 2023: Home explores the theme through domestic objects and spaces, nature, pets and people, providing opportunities for viewers to reflect on their impression of home.

The exhibition will run until July 16 at SAM’s Hugh D.T. Williamson Community Gallery.

Later in the year, annual exhibitions SAM EOI and SAM Spotlight will feature in the community gallery.
