PREPARATIONS are well in train for the tenth anniversary of the Valla Expressions Art Show to be held at the Valla Community Hall from 3-11 January 2026.
To mark the occasion, an opening evening will be held on Sunday, 4 January from 5- 7pm.
Organiser Julie Collins told News Of The Area, “All of the artists will be present, and the community are invited to share some light refreshments while watching a visual presentation of the history of the art show.
“Gary Cattanach will provide live music and all art on show will be for sale.
“The youth art will no longer be an active competition but will include a visual display.
“We shall be selling gift vouchers outside Nourish Cafe on 4 and 14 December from 9.30-12.30 as well as at the Valla Markets on 6 December.”
The Valla Expressions Art Show – featuring 16 artists and craftspeople from Valla Beach, Nambucca Heads, and the surrounding area – has long been a major fundraiser for the community, with a percentage of all sales donated to the Valla Beach Community Association to be used in local projects.
See the Show’s Facebook page for profiles of participating artists.
