As this is the

50th Darlington Arts Festival

there is call for a special celebration, taking a break from the usual format.


For 2013 there will be a ‘once off’ format to celebrate and pay homage to the roots of the arts festival and all the contributing community groups over its 49 years.

The Arts Exhibition committee are currently working away on the soon to be unveiled 2013 Exhibition.

We look forward to bringing you something really special for this year, we hope you will embrace this deviation for the norm.

For those of you who were looking forward to entering this years ‘Open Exhibition’, we hope that you will enjoy  what we  present and we very much look forward to receiving your entries for 2014.

The Darlington Arts Festival is Western Australia's longest running FREE community festival. 
Held over two days from Saturday 2nd and Sunday 3rd November 2013, the Festival is a fantastic day out for all ages.
The festival is held in the beautiful Perth Hills village of Darlington, approximately 30 minutes drive from the Perth CBD. 
From art exhibitions, to art and craft workshops, free entertainment and market stalls galore, the first weekend in November is the perfect time to head for the hills ....
