2026 exclusive – Art Teacher Art is taking over the entirety of the Woolloongabba Art Gallery!
With the wonderful success of ATA25 showing over 60 artworks made by our very own QATA members, the exhibition is back and better than ever! Eckersley’s is once again sponsoring a major prize as well as an additional runner-up prize. The theme of this year’s exhibition reflects the QATACON26 theme, Stories we tell. How do you explore storytelling?
Art Teacher Art is a celebration of the creative minds and personal practices of our QATA members. It is a safe space that accommodates all levels of ability. From works on canvas or paper, digital projections, hanging installations, sculpture to weaving and painted miniatures, this exhibition is a celebration designed to foster networking and partnerships. You may even find your creative kindred spirit and collaborate on a piece for ATA27!
