Local artists unite in ‘Balance the Scales’ International Women’s Day exhibition

Arts Mid North Coast is organizing an exhibition titled 'Balance the Scales' to coincide with International Women's Day. The show will run from February 22 to March 8 at the MAKE/SPACE gallery in Coffs Central Shopping Centre, featuring works by local artists from the Mid North Coast region that explore themes of gender balance, power, and social change.

The exhibition aims to amplify women's voices and lived experiences, fostering community dialogue and reflection on equity and justice. A portion of artwork sales will be donated to a local women's refuge, linking the artistic initiative directly to community support. The event highlights the role of regional arts organizations in addressing social issues and creating platforms for local artists.
