Arts Mildura 1995 - 2018

Arts Mildura creates and delivers a diverse annual arts program and

continues to develop a range of ongoing outreach and audience

engagement projects.

Since its inception in 1994, Arts Mildura has grown from one small

weekend arts festival, to an annual suite of major cultural celebrations

across all art forms.

With such a breadth of activity, our mission is to remain focused on

these core events, while creating new arts experiences that are

engaging, entertaining, meaningful and transformative.

The wonderfully talented Massimo Scattolin & Andrea Vettoretti presenting a blissful

performance to a sold out audience.. what a way to kick off the Mildura Summer Music Festival!

Festival 2015 Valanga Khoza left South Africa in

1976, exiled along with many other

young people because of their struggle

against apartheid.

The music and stories he has since

created reflect the places he has been

and the people he has touched

throughout his journey across the world

as a refugee, finally settling in Australia.

“The Festival aims to bring to

Sunraysia and the greater rural

municipality of Mildura, arts events of

quality and substance on a par with

any found in the major metropolitan

Australian cities; to involve the whole

population of Sunraysia with

particular emphasis on the young; to

retain its „human accessibility‟, which

is the factor that distinguishes its from

other similar events; and to establish

a program of events which will extend

beyond the core period – usually

March – to provide Sunraysia with

ongoing cultural events.” Mildura Arts Festival Program 1996

“...vision exacts a very material toll…” President’s message, Mildura Arts Festival Program

“...Many artists are coming back for

this second event. It is both an

expression of their confidence in this

district, and the sign of an evolving

friendship…” President’s message, Mildura Arts Festival Program
