Art in the Valley: Light Weight

There is something special about a change in seasons in the valley, and this November brings a fresh reason to head towards Healesville. The TarraWarra Museum of Art is preparing to unveil its latest exhibition, Light Weight, marking a significant moment in their 2026-27 program.

Located on the Healesville-Yarra Glen Road, the museum is a staple for anyone wandering through the region. It’s a place where the landscape and the art feel like they belong to one another. The Light Weight exhibition will open its doors on 28 November 2026, offering a window into new creative works that stay with you long after you’ve left the gallery.

If you are planning a trip, keep in mind that booking is required for this one. It’s best to sort your tickets ahead of time via Humanitix to ensure you don’t miss out. The exhibition is set to run through until 28 February 2027, making it a perfect addition to a summer spent exploring the local trails and waterfalls.

Getting there is straightforward, though you should plan your day around the museum’s location in the heart of the Yarra Valley. General admission is $20.00 (plus a $1.00 fee), with concessions available for seniors at $17.00 (plus a $0.93 fee) and concession holders at $12.00 (plus an $0.80 fee). If you’re bringing the kids, those under 18 can enter for free.

Whether you are a lifelong art lover or just looking for a quiet moment of reflection between drives through the valley, Light Weight offers a chance to slow down and see something new. It is a fine excuse to head into Healesville, take in the art, and enjoy everything our corner of Victoria has to offer.
