LOOK HEAR

Look Hear

Look Hear has established itself as the keenest art and design event on the calendar. Part conference, part club house, part playground—it’s a total design geek out—held 3, 10, 17 & 24 August at the Newcastle Region Art Gallery and showing off fresh faces and alt perspectives in design land.

Previous events have seen speakers from around Australia—such as illustration duo WeBuyYourKids, The National Grid design studio, illustrator Mike Watt and Newcastle’s own Heath Killen to name a few—sharing their creative processes, influences and work to a broad audience ranging from industry professionals, university students to the general public.

This year we are aiming to make the event even better, so stay tuned for announcement of speakers in the following weeks and more exciting stuff to go with the event! We are excited to see you all there!

Look See

After an amazing show last year featuring some of the best artists and designers, the Look See exhibition is back to give Newcastle an experience to remember.

Look See runs from 3—21 August with opening night happening on Friday 5th August at 6.30pm. This is the second year Look See has come out to play in Newcastle and we’re more excited than ever. Not only does it come along with Look Hear—but it brings us the chance to exhibit the work of some of the most inspiring designers and artists in Australia.

Last year we were lucky enough to feature the fantastic works of Beci Orpin, WeBuyYourKids, and Paul White alongside some of our local up and coming designers and illustrators.  We’re aiming to make this year bigger and better with a new gallery space, more artists and an exciting live art battle planned to kick off our opening night thanks to our friends at Secret Wars.
