3 Best Places To Visit in Mildura, VIC

“Mildura Arts Centre facilities include a regional art gallery, a performing arts theatre, Rio Vista Historic House, a Sculpture Park, and a cafe. Several rooms in Rio Vista, including the conservatory, were repurposed for display, and many of the original surfaces were painted over. The conversion of the Mildura Arts Centre saved the house from possible demolition and the subdivision of the surrounding grounds. The exhibition program provides a vibrant and engaging mix of temporary exhibitions, selected collection works, contemporary local artist exhibitions, touring exhibitions, and the work of visiting artists. There is free entry to the art gallery and Rio Vista Historic House. The Mildura Arts Centre has free parking at the back of the theatre and on Cherry Avenue.”
