Overview

Canberra Art Biennial presents contemporary public art across the designed landscape of Kamberri/Canberra. Beginning in 2016, the festival will return for its 6th edition in 2026. Programmed by Creative Producer, Tegan Garnett, the festival invites artists from across Australia and internationally to present commentary on place, connection and life.

They acknowledge that the city and wider landscape they know as Canberra, has always been a meeting place for the sharing of culture and knowledge by one of the oldest continuing cultures.
