Today's THE DAY!
The EARLY BIRD DEADLINE for entries in the 2026 Matthew Flinders Art Prize.
Enter NOW!
We're eager to see what you're planning for this year's prestigious City of Moreton Bay art event,.
Other entries for the MFAP close Sunday June 21.
Here's where you enter on the BICAS website. https://www.bribieartscentre.com.au/matthewflindersartprize
The prizes are fantastic; more than $9000 in cash.
And, importantly, your art is displayed in our magnificent namesake gallery and perused, admired and maybe bought. Thousands of visitors come to this highly-esteemed event each year.
It's a buzz to be part of here: judges talks, gallery tours, artists to meet and greet, daily demonstrations and a People's Choice award to vote for - and maybe win.
This amazing annual event on Bribie happens due largely to the wonderful generosity of our sponsors. Please support THEM where and when you can.
Today we acknowledge silver sponsors Banksia Fruit & Juice Barn.
This local business is owned by Michael Taddio and Kristy Murphy, who bought it in 2019 from Wights, who'd been operating on Bribie for 40 years.
In 2022, Michael’s father, Rico Taddio came on board. They now operate at Banksia Beach Shopping Complex, incorporating a fresh juice and smoothie bar with Rico’s Fresh Deli, offering a variety of cold sliced and whole meats, salamis, and many other delicious Italian and Asian products.
