Connecting - Inspiring - Creating

The Yarrawonga Mulwala Artist Association (YMAA), founded in 1998 by a dedicated group of local artists, has grown into a vibrant community of 34 members. Several founding artists remain active today, contributing to a friendly, social, and creatively diverse group. YMAA hosts regular workshops and demonstrations with visiting artists, supports art programs in local schools, and welcomes new members to its weekly Thursday meet‑ups at 10am at the Men’s Shed within the Yarrawonga Showgrounds.

Members work across a wide range of mediums and enjoy sharing skills, including through Plein Air paint‑outs along the Murray River. The association also partners with local clubs to present two annual art shows.

In 2022, YMAA proudly opened the Hovell St Art Gallery at 26 Hovell Street, Yarrawonga. This volunteer‑run gallery showcases original artworks and handmade pieces from local creators, offering a warm and welcoming space for visitors to explore regional talent
