EOIs are now open for the 2026 ‘Healing with Compassion’ art exhibition at the TBA gallery. This exhibition is part of our 2026 St Kilda ‘Healing with Compassion’ Peace Festival. Planetary Healing Artists’ seeks to exhibit artworks from both emerging and established artists of any visual medium. We ask that submitted works are within the concept of “healing with Compassion” whatever that may mean to you. In this exhibition, we invite artists to be part of an exhibition that explores the transformative power of art as a space for care, understanding, and emotional renewal, with the exhibition’s focus on compassion as a pathway to healing, also honouring the possibility of transformation.

We welcome works that reflect personal or collective experiences of vulnerability, resilience, and growth. Art has the capacity to hold difficult feelings safely, offering a sense of control, reflection, and release. Through this exhibition, we aim to create a space where both artists and audiences can engage with these experiences in a spirit of empathy and connection. Submissions may explore themes such as emotional healing, identity, and cultural knowledge. By bringing these works together, the exhibition seeks to foster dialogue, understanding, and shared humanity.

‍ Join us in creating a space where art becomes a gentle act of care: EOIs close 1 August 2026.
