Uncover stories and explore more of The Offbeat Sari through a range of talks, workshops, activities and events.

As the temperature begins to drop, we fire up the Outdoor Screen with the 2026 ART AFTER DARK program. Beginning the program is Antariksha Studio’s animated machinima short film 432 Hz: Origins, aligning with The Offbeat Sari exhibition taking place in the Bunjil Place Gallery.

From April to August, for 2 hours each evening - from 5.00 pm to 7.00 pm - the Bunjil Place Outdoor Screen will exhibit video art works by established artists.

The Digital Wall in the Bunjil Place foyer is a digital gallery space that exhibits video art and generative works. Over the next three months we present the digital video artwork SHAKTI , aligning with the Offbeat Sari exhibition in the Bunjil Place Gallery.

Spectral draws inspiration from the extraordinary mating dance of the Maratus—Australia’s tiny, jewel-toned peacock spider. In nature, the male Maratus performs an intricate choreography of rhythm, vibration, and colour to captivate his potential mate. His iridescent patterns shimmer under sunlight like living pixels, transforming instinct into art—a performance that balances beauty and vulnerability, risk and reward.

Creature Communication-The World of Non-Human Artists is a perennial interest in gardening, science and the natural world.

Dive into Spiders of Paradise-inspired talks, films and adventures at Bunjil Place or take your creativity outdoors with spidery surprises at The Old Cheese Factory and Wilson Botanic Park.
