Sunraysia residents have an opportunity to contribute to a new exhibition at Mildura Arts Centre (MAC) capturing the 2022 Murray River flood event.

Flood: 12 months on will predominantly feature images of the 2022 flood event, but also include imagery of the record 1956 floods.

Amateur and professional photographers/videographers are invited to contribute their images from the most recent flood as part of the exhibition.

Mildura’s Deputy Mayor and Councillor for Arts, Culture and Heritage Helen Healy said the exhibition was a unique opportunity to be part of a project that captures an important moment in our region’s history.

“The Murray River flood event was certainly a challenging time for many in our community and will be remembered for decades to come,” Cr Healy said.

“It also resulted in some spectacular imagery from both amateur and professional photographers, providing a wonderful source of material for Mildura Arts Centre’s upcoming exhibition, Flood: 12 months on.”

Submissions can include up to three images or videos, however final selection will be limited to one work per person. Photographers/videographers who are successful will be paid an artist’s fee for their contribution.

Those wishing to make a submission can fill out a proposal form, which is available by visiting www.milduraartscentre.com.au/WhatsOnPages/Exhibitions and clicking on the ‘Flood: 12 months on’ link.
