Shepparton Art Museum’s latest public program is calling for entries to SAM Squared — a revamped version of its popular annual SAM Local exhibition, to be shown in the new Williamson Community Gallery.
SAM acting artistic director and senior curator Shelley McSpedden said SAM Squared offered a unique year-round opportunity for local artists to see their work displayed in a professional context.

“We have an extraordinarily rich and diverse creative community in the Goulburn Valley region,” Ms McSpedden said.
“From spinners and weavers, to painters and makers in more traditional forms.
“The SAM Squared program is designed as a permanent space to support, promote and celebrate creativity in all its many forms.”
The program offers opportunities in three areas:
SAM OPEN: An all-ages, open exhibition with applications open until Friday, January 28.
SAM EOI: For an artist, curator, creative practitioner or community group to present exhibitions via an expression of interest proposal.
SAM SPOTLIGHT: A solo exhibition showcasing the talent of an emerging local artist.
