About Walls that Talk
Walls that Talk is a place activation initiative that displays images on the front wall of Maitland Library for the whole community to enjoy and experience.​​​​​​
Current Exhibition
For this edition of Walls that Talk, Maitland City Council invited local community preschools to create artworks that capture the many ways families celebrate the festive season.
It’s a time for connection — sharing meals, telling stories, exchanging gifts, decorating homes, and enjoying quality time with loved ones.
Two preschools answered the call, bringing us a delightful mix of artworks and craft creations made by the little ones. These festive pieces were transformed into a beautiful mosaic of collaborative frames, now on display for all to see.
