The Millicent Library recently wrapped up another successful school holiday program, with local children and families enjoying a range of technology, art, craft and creative activities.
Winners of the 2026 Wattle Range Photographic Exhibition have now been announced following a record-breaking 635 entries, including 125 photographs in the Youth section. The youth competition continues to grow, with outstanding entries across both Junior and Senior categories. Prize-winning photographs are currently on display in Gallery 2, while a digital presentation of all entries can be viewed on gallery screens and at www.wattlerange.sa.gov.au. Selection of images for the 2027 Wattle Range Calendar is also now underway.
Currently featuring in the Gallery is the Millicent Craft Group exhibition Weird and Wonderful. The exhibition encourages visitors to embrace curiosity, celebrate originality and find delight in the unexpected. The works on display showcase creativity in all its forms, proving that some of the most memorable creations are those that stand out from the crowd.
Looking ahead, entries are now open for the 11th annual Wattle Range Art Exhibition. The exhibition attracts artists from across South Australia and beyond, with works spanning painting, sculpture, ceramics, photography, textiles and mixed media.
