RAW26

RAW26 is the annual showcase of outstanding original artworks produced by young people of the Murray region. This year’s exhibition features eleven artists, each highlighting the unique perspectives and experiences of our local young people.

The 2026 exhibition explores ideas of memory, history, and human connection linking perspectives on the past, present, and future. Featured artworks incorporate a range of mediums including painting, drawing, ceramics, photography, printmaking, textiles, and digital media.

An important aspect of the opportunity for participating young artists is a series of professional development tutorials lead by MAMA curatorial staff that cover aspects of concept development, artwork preparation, and exhibition installation as well as feedback for future projects and planning of the opening celebration. From this the artists involved take a leading role in the development of their exhibition.
