Spending time in Nature and being creative can have strong benefits for health and wellbeing.
The 2020 Act-Belong-Commit Esperance Wildflower Festival Art Exhibition and

Individual artists over the age of 18 and community groups are invited to submit artwork in the Open Category of the competition.

This theme is a celebration of local plant and bird species and the important relationships between them.
All entries will be exhibited in shop windows throughout the Esperance CBD in the lead-up to, and during, the Festival.
