Outdoor Gallery: Art to merch panel discussion as part of Outdoor Gallery ‘AMPLIFY ME!’

Step into a workshop buzzing with ideas and the potential to transform your artwork into merchandise. Drawing on the diverse practices of the AMPLIFY ME! Outdoor Gallery artists, this engaging session explores creative pathways from concept to product. Hear real-world examples, practical tips and personal stories from artists who are building sustainable creative careers through their work. Expect a lively, collaborative environment where connections are made, ideas are sparked and the seeds of your own creative future begin to take shape. This program is part of Council’s latest Outdoor Gallery exhibition, AMPLIFY ME! , a celebration of local Brisbane artists with lived experience of disability that showcases  their work in accessible outdoor spaces across the city. Grounded in inclusive arts practice, the exhibition encourages collaboration and barrier-free creativity, supporting lasting connections, inclusion and social change across Brisbane’s cultural landscape. AMPLIFY ME! is curated by Nicole Crosswell and runs from 21 November 2025 to 25 October 2026. Council’s Outdoor Gallery transforms Brisbane’s laneways, streets and car parks into imaginative spaces for everyone, showcasing art in light boxes, banners, vitrines and evening projections.
