PROGRAM
CURRENTLY ACCEPTING EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST FOR OUR OPEN CALL a new platform for emergent Western Australian artistic practice. Five to seven artists will be selected by a national curatorium for an exhibition at Vessel opening during July, 2027.



Vessel acknowledges the Whadjuk Noongar people as the Traditional Owners of the land on which we work and practice. We recognise the importance of ‘Dwerda Weelardinup’ as a significant navigational and communication site. We’d like to acknowledge that we are on Beeliar and Midgegooroo Country. We pay our respects and offer our gratitude for the immense care of Country that Elders past and present have, and are providing. Always was, always will be Aboriginal Land.
