THIS October, get disruptive and celebrate young local artists at Disruption. A bold, immersive art exhibition organised by Greater Shepparton City Council’s Resilience in Recovery from Saturday, 18 to Friday, 31.
This innovative animated exhibition features the artwork and creativity of young locals, exploring themes of natural disasters and emergency responses through their own experiences. The exhibition will showcase a total of 37 original artworks from young people aged 12 to 25 years.
Shepparton Uniting Church, where the exhibition will take place, is set to transform into a breathtaking animated haven, where vibrant visuals and immersive audio effects will collide to create an unforgettable sensory experience. ‘Disruption’ is not just an exhibition; it’s a journey through art, sound, and emotion.
Council’s Manager Emergency Management and Resilience, Belinda Conna, said the team was very eager to see this exhibition come to life.
“We’re excited for people to attend this free exhibition. ‘Disruption’ is open to everyone to attend. School bookings, and visitors will get a copy of the First 72 hours plan to take home with them and complete with their household,” she said.
“The exhibition will move beyond simply showcasing disruption, to highlight the practical steps that we can all take to prepare for emergencies and strengthen our community’s resilience.”
This project runs alongside Greater Shepparton’s First 72 Hours campaign, which reminds us that when the unexpected happens, being prepared makes all the difference. The First 72 Hours is a collaborative initiative involving multiple councils and emergency response agencies, focused on helping people create their own emergency plan and be ready when it counts.
