About Artlands

Artlands 2026 brings together a cross-section of Australia’s regional creative ecology to explore how creativity connects with the systems shaping regional futures.

Artlands 2026 explores how creative practice intersects with the complex systems shaping regional futures. 

This gathering creates space for artists, communities, First Nations knowledge holders, scientists, industry voices and policymakers to come together and explore those connections.

The goal is not to produce another roadmap or set of priorities. Instead, Artlands 2026 focuses on something equally important: Creating the conditions for deeper dialogue, stronger relationships and new forms of collaboration across regional Australia. 

Artlands26 Framework: Water connects everything

Across regional Australia, water shapes landscapes, ecosystems, industries and livelihoods. It runs through culture, memory and identity. It moves between flood and drought, crisis and recovery — revealing the systems communities depend on to live, adapt and endure.

At Artlands 2026, water is the lens, not the topic. It is a connector that opens multiple entry points into conversation, linking Country, culture, creativity and the future of regional Australia.

Through this framework, artists, First Nations knowledge holders, scientists, industry voices and policymakers will explore a central question:

What can creativity reveal about the systems shaping regional Australia's future?
