“Pocket Galleries, tiny galleries for little artworks - with a big impact.” – Di Caught, The Colour Manifesto

Pocket Galleries are small, shoebox sized homes for artwork, designed to be established throughout communities to encourage local storytelling and artistic opportunities. After successful installations in City of Adelaide, City of West Torrens and City of Prospect, the District Council of Loxton Waikerie have engaged the help of Di Caught from The Colour Manifesto to install Pocket Galleries in their first regional location, with the intention of showcasing local artworks on a rotational basis.

Pocket Galleries provide artists, schools, community and history groups with an opportunity to connect to the public day-to-day, or even with tourists as they explore the town. Planned to be installed throughout East Terrace, Pocket Galleries will naturally encourage viewers to traverse the corridors of Loxton, enticing exploration and excitement surrounding the history of our district and the talented creatives that reside here.
