We are inviting South Australian artists to contribute A5-size artworks to LIMITLESS 2026 - The Mill’s Fundraiser Exhibition to be held in September.
The exhibition is a celebration of work by local SA artists including: The Mill resident artists and alumni artists, visual arts students and graduates, local artists, studio collectives and the wider arts community.
Each artwork submitted will be A5-sized, and will be sold for $100. We will profile involved artists in the lead up to the launch, but artists' names and details will be kept anonymous in the exhibition.
Artists' names and details will be revealed after works are purchased. When an artwork is sold, the artist will receive 50% ($50) and The Mill will receive 50% ($50). This contributes to The Mill’s annual fundraising target, ensuring we can continue to support and create opportunities for artists.
