Horsham Town Hall hosts its annual season launch this weekend, opening the Theatre and Art Gallery to the public for a sneak peek into an exciting and diverse range of programs, performances, events and exhibitions for the year ahead.

The free community event, on Sunday 8 February, coincides with the 10-year anniversary of the redevelopment of the Horsham Town Hall, which saw the construction of the new complex incorporating the Heritage Hall, Horsham Regional Art Gallery and a state-of-the-art 500-seat theatre space.

The launch event features an overview of the upcoming performing arts and gallery programs, tastings of local produce available at the Visitor Information Centre, behind the scenes tours of the Art Gallery and the Theatre, and a children’s activity area.

Friendly staff will be on hand to answer questions about workshops, memberships and volunteering, and if you “purchased” a seat in the Theatre you can check where it is located.

Horsham Town Hall is now firmly established as the region’s premier arts and entertainment venue, a vibrant community hub providing world-class performance, visual arts and conference facilities.

In the past financial year, the venue has hosted 104 performances and 42 events, along with 19 exhibitions and another 131 workshops and 35 events through the Horsham Regional Art Gallery.

This year’s program features a broad range of artists and performers, from local college productions and graduation ceremonies, to internationally acclaimed ballet, comedy and theatre, as well as national touring art exhibitions.

“Horsham Town Hall is the cultural heart of our city and region,” said Mayor Cr Brian Klowss.

“There is no better venue in the Wimmera for performances, exhibitions and events, attracting some of the best performers from throughout Australia and overseas, and showcasing an unparalleled collection of regional artwork.”

“Most importantly, it has been embraced by our community in so many meaningful ways, and we are incredibly proud to be celebrating its 10-year anniversary.”

“We are also delighted to celebrate the first anniversary of our newly-revamped Visitor Information Centre, which showcases so much on offer across our wonderful region” added Cr Klowss.

The launch event, from 10am-2pm, will feature a photo display and video of the construction. Tours of the Art Gallery and Theatre will commence at 10.30am, 11.30am (accessible tour) and 1pm.

Horsham Town Hall, at 71 Pynsent Street, is open daily from 10am-4pm. For more details, visit horshamtownhall.com.au, phone 5382 9555, or email boxoffice@hrcc.vic.gov.au
