Our biggest event of the year! We’re already drafting a program packed with events for art and architecture lovers. We can’t wait to share it with you, but in the meantime, save those dates!

The most popular event in the mid-century calendar! This year, we have three MCM homes in Beaumaris, plus an exclusive look at a never-seen-before church. There’s three timeslots to choose from, with addresses and maps provided on check-in at Beaumaris Art Group. Each location is a short drive, or approximately a 20 minute walk from the next, so self-driving is recommended, and carpooling highly encouraged!

Session 1: 9:45am – 2:00pm (check-in 8:45am)
Session 2: 10:45am – 3:00pm (check-in 9:45am)
Session 3: 12:00pm – 4:45pm (check-in 11:00am)

Tickets: $80 members, $100 non-members

During the mid-century era, young artists and architects flocked to Beaumaris. They not only built some of the area’s most significant homes, they also fostered a thriving creative community. This exhibition showcases ten Beaumaris homes, along with the artworks that were created by the residents living there.

Tickets: $15 (includes nibbles and a drink on arrival)

We’re joining forces with our friends at BrisMod for a double feature of mid-century documentaries. On the bill will be Futuro, which documents the rise and fall of the plastic Futuro House. Next up will be Fogo Island, which tells the story of a bold architecture project on remote Fogo Island.

Tickets: $15 (includes movie snacks)

It’s part game show, part Antiques Roadshow!

Join the fun as passionate collectors each present three unique pieces, all with a different value. It’s up to you to figure out the Good, the Better and the Best. And yes, there will be prizes for the winners, including a trophy for the 2025 Champion.

Tickets: $15 (includes drink on arrival)
