Fraser Coast CommuniTea Set Showcases - Hervey Bay

The community art project was designed to reduce social isolation and support community recovery by building community resilience through connections and friendships.

Council hosted a number of community-based art workshops across the local government area from November 2024 to February 2025.

The judging panel met on 4 February 2025 to choose the artwork to go onto the tea set pieces. The selected designs have now been carefully painted onto the tea set pieces, bringing to life a visual story that reflects the diversity and spirit of our region.The completed Fraser Coast CommuniTea Set will be unveiled at two special showcase events:

Where: Hervey Bay Regional Gallery, Hervey Bay
When: Thursday 27 March, starting 4:30pm-5:00pm, finishing at 7:30pm

Another Showcase Event will be held at the Brolga Theatre, Maryborough on Thursday 20 March, starting 4:30pm-5:00pm, finishing at 7:30pm. Click here to find out more.

Each piece of the tea set forms part of a larger community puzzle, symbolising the connections and shared experiences of our region. We invite you to witness this remarkable collection and celebrate the artistic contributions of our local community.
