Canterbury Art Exhibition

In 1973, the first Canterbury Art Exhibition was held at the school. It because a major annual event for Canterbury Primary School and arts patrons alike and attracted over 1000 people each year to the weekend exhibition.

The focus of the art exhibition was on high quality works across a range of media, with a bias toward modern styles. The diversity of the exhibition allowed the inclusion of dedicated areas for ceramics and aboriginal art, as well as a selection of quality sculpture, in addition to the main theme of paintings and prints.

Over the years, the Canterbury Art Exhibition gained a reputation for being different to the normal school-based shows because of its contemporary outlook. The exhibition stood out through the high artistic standard it attracted.
