Mount Alexander Shire Council is supporting young artists to showcase their talents by hosting a new art exhibition in Castlemaine.
The Little Maine Art exhibition, which is currently on display in the Phee Broadway Theatre foyer, features artwork from 18 artists aged between 10 and 20 years.
The exhibition is a project coordinated by council’s Youth Advisory Group, which is a group of local young people who help council better understand, and engage with, young people.
Mount Alexander Shire Council Youth Advisory Group member Billy Lister said that Little Maine Art gives young artists an opportunity to exhibit their artwork.
“The aim of the exhibition is to showcase local creative talent,” Billy said.
“There’s a mix of paintings, illustrations and digital work.
“Some of the pieces are for sale, so come and support our young people and view the amazing artwork. Maybe even purchase one to take home!”
Little Maine Art is open to the public until Wednesday June 7.
