Mission Arts

Mission Arts is a vibrant community arts centre located in Mission Beach, QLD bringing a variety of creative opportunities and experiences to the residents and visitors of the Cassowary Coast. The centre was opened in August 2010 and consists of a gallery, gallery shop, open air workshop space, dedicated pottery shed, theatre space, and a combined administrative/catering/storage area. We are the largest completely self-sustaining community arts organisation in the Far North and operate as a completely volunteer-led and volunteer-run organisation. We host approximately 12 exhibition openings a year, which are free and open to the public and facilitate more than 50 workshops a year, covering a range of areas such as basketry, mosaic, pottery, creative writing, life drawing and painting. Our Gallery Shop consigns beautiful original works of art from local and regional artists. Our facility is available for hire and we welcome conversations with interested artists, individuals and groups wishing to further explore their connection to the arts.

At the core, we're about community, we're about collaboration, we're about creating an inclusive arts space where anyone can feel welcome to explore or further develop their artistic talents and creative pursuits. We do hope you'll drop in and say hello when you're in the area...and we thank you in advance for supporting the arts!
