Strathbogie Shire has a strong creative sector, with many creative individuals and groups calling our region home.
To foster this, Council appointed an Arts and Culture Officer in 2021. The role was created to facilitate connections between community members, funding programs and tourism stakeholders, as well as identifying opportunities to promote arts and culture initiatives within our region.
Council’s Arts & Culture Officer plays a vital role in enhancing what our community already offers in this space and developing a platform for creatives and cultural groups to engage effectively with each other and the broader community.

Expressions of Interest Open for Euroa Public Art Trail Project 2025
Strathbogie Shire Council is calling on artists to help shape the next chapter of Euroa’s public art landscape, with Expressions of Interest (EOI) now open for the Euroa Public Art Trail Project 2025.
Following the success of the iconic ‘Swoop the Big Barrwarrang’ magpie sculpture in Euroa’s Seven Creeks Park, Council is excited to move into Stage Two of Euroa’s public art journey. With $50,000 allocated through the 2024-25 Pitch My Project initiative, this new phase will see the installation of at least two new freestanding sculptures in key locations across Euroa.
Artists interested in applying should download the brief and EOI form below.
EOIs are open until 5pm on May 7 2025, with successful applicants notified by the end of May. Installation of the final sculptures is intended for completion by July 30 2025.
