The South Australian Living Artists Festival (SALA, or SALA Festival) is a statewide, open-access[1] visual arts festival which takes place throughout August in South Australia each year.[2]

The SALA features a range of approximately 600 venues including galleries and non-traditional spaces such as cafes, bookshops, and cemeteries which exhibit all forms of visual arts.[3]

Organisation

[edit]

The SALA Festival was established in 1998 as an initiative of the Australian Commercial Galleries Association, SA Branch, to promote and celebrate visual artists in South Australia.[4] Its aim is to extend audiences for living artists in South Australia, with a policy of inclusiveness which allows all artists at any level and working in any medium to be part of the Festival.[5]

Originally called the South Australian Living Artists Week, its name was changed to SALA Festival in 2002.[6]

The SALA Festival is a not-for-profit organisation that relies on government support, private sponsorship and earned income to invest back into South Australian artists.[7]

Governance

Chair

  • Alexandrea Cannon, OAM, 2022-present[8]
  • Paul Greenaway OAM, founding chair, 1998-2007[9]

Festival Awards

[edit]

SALA Festival offers a number of prizes to artists and venues.

South Australian Living Artist Publication

[edit]

The South Australian Living Artist Publication is an award launched in 1999 as part of the SALA Festival.[10] With funding provided by the South Australian Government,[11] a publication (book) is commissioned and written on a leading South Australian artist or craftsperson with potential for national and international promotion and published by Wakefield Press.[10]

The first recipient of the South Australian Living Artist Publication was Annette Bezor.[10] The most recent recipient whose publication will be published in 2024 is Julia Robinson.
