The beetles are crawling away, the flowers closing their sleepy heads and the fish are swimming to deeper waters!

fishFLOWERbeetle, KiLN gallery's very successful September exhibition is closing today. Sarah Mitchell's exceptional works have drawn crowds of art lovers seeking a look at her carefully crafted, handcoloured lino cuts and they have been very impressed with what they've seen.



We now welcome the 2009 BARI festival, and are excited to have works by some of Brisbane's most talented emerging artists in the gallery. Opening on the 10th of October this exhibition will be featured in the gallery right through until the end of October.

Jamie Congdon, 2009.


On the 11th of October KiLN is proud to host the KiLN Classics concert again featuring exquisite string music by the Brisbane Chamber Collective. Also, we are very proud to have highly regarded curator Alison Kubler speaking at this event, discussing the climate for emerging artists in Brisbane, and the growth of the arts scene in Brisbane.
