Regional Arts Development Central West NSW
PLINTH SHOW
Showcasing Central West artists

Arts OutWest celebrated 50 years of arts and cultural development in the Central West in 2024.

One of our celebrations included a rotating, small-scale exhibition project called THE PLINTH SHOW.

This project highlighted a different artist, with their work displayed on portable plinths, at a different visitor information centre around the Central West each month for 15 months.
Each exhibition consisted of 1, 2 or 3 plinths.  The program was designed to promote local artists and cultural tourism across our region with cross promotion of the Culture Maps Central NSW website.
