Everyone knows that BIGSOUND is the place to be for musicians wanting to be seen by the music industry – but did you know that we’d like to create that same opportunity for visual artists?

This is an open call for Australian artists of all disciplines who wish to exhibit existing works to a music industry and public festival audience during BIGSOUND 2017. Works may be exhibited in the public realm or within live music venues in Fortitude Valley.
