PORTAL Capture Day 2026

What does life on Tasmania's North West Coast look like through your eyes?

On Monday 2 November, we're inviting our community to take part in PORTAL 2026 by capturing a photograph that reflects coastal life, the people, places, moments and stories that make our region unique. Photographs will be featured in a public exhibition at the Devonport Regional Gallery later this year.

How to get involved:
• Register for a reminder by 29 October
• Take your photo on Monday 2 November
• Submit your image by 13 November
• See your work on display in the PORTAL 26 exhibition from 7 December 2026 to 8 January 2027

Whether it's a quiet moment, a local landmark, family traditions, or a snapshot of everyday life, we'd love to see the North West Coast through your lens.

On Friday evening we welcomed guests to the Meet & Greet the Artist event for Unremarkable by emerging Tasmanian artist Ariel Pascoe.

Ariel shared insights into the exhibition, which draws on photographs taken during her work as an environmental consultant, transforming everyday and often overlooked scenes into striking paintings that explore the beauty of ordinary moments. Unremarkable invites us to look beyond the carefully curated and celebrate the imperfect, random reality of everyday life.

Unremarkable is on display in the Little Gallery at Devonport Regional Gallery until 7 November.
