bentART 2024

An exhibition with substantial prizes celebrating Australian lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer, asexual and other sexually or gender diverse artists. bentART was established in the Blue Mountains in 2005 to celebrate works in the visual arts of Australian LGBTIQA+ artists. Each year over the June long weekend, the annual bentART exhibition is held in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales.

The inspiration of three Blue Mountains women, bentART has evolved into the largest LGBTIQA+ art event in Australia. Initially, for LGBTIQA+ artists living in (or with a strong association with) the Blue Mountains, bentART is now open to all LGBTIQA+ artists resident in Australia and is again utilising Rex- Livingston Art + Objects in Katoomba for bentART 2024, with, for the first time, expanded exhibition dates.
