Proud Butchulla man and Hervey Bay local, Joel Barney, loves living on the Fraser Coast.
The Fraser Coast Art Community came together to celebrate the opening of our two latest exhibitions:
The works of Aboriginal artists connected to the Fraser Coast and an historic event that inspired national change are the subject of two new exhibitions opening at the Hervey Bay Regional Gallery.
We were delighted to throw open our doors again on Saturday 16 April. Hundreds of smiling faces were in attendance making the most of our talks and activities.
On Thursday 14 April a small ceremony was held to officially reopen HBRG after its extensive refurbishment.
We are looking for volunteers – new and returning – to join us in reopening and sharing our reinvigorated gallery.
Exciting job opportunities currently available with Hervey Bay Regional Gallery

A larger gallery with capacity to host more national and significant art exhibitions will be the result of a $2.7 million refurbishment of the Hervey Bay Regional Gallery.
"Inspiration is always close at hand"
