Level Up - Exhibition opening - HERE+SEEN Art Prize

LEVEL UP is series of contemporary community gallery spaces spread across Wyndham. These spaces have been developed to provide emerging artists with an opportunity to showcase their work and support their transition into professional practice.

Join the artist to celebrate the opening of this exhibition and to present these new artworks to the world. This is a catered event and RSVPs are appreciated.

HERE+SEEN, presented by Arts Assist through Wyndham City’s LEVEL UP program, celebrates the creativity, perspectives and voices of visual artists with lived experience of intellectual disability and/or disabling neurodivergence.

Presented as part of the 2026 Melbourne Fringe Festival, HERE+SEEN provides a platform for artists to exhibit their work, connect with audiences and explore opportunities within the broader contemporary arts community.

More than an exhibition, HERE+SEEN is designed to support artists at different stages of their creative journey. The program aims to build confidence, strengthen artistic practice and create pathways for artists to explore new opportunities, both locally and beyond.

Through exhibition, connection and recognition, HERE+SEEN seeks to increase the visibility of artists with disability and celebrate their important contribution to contemporary art and culture.
