Rain Moth Gallery

The art matters. But so do the people who bring it through our doors.

One of the loveliest parts of welcoming Kapunda Gallery to the Rain Moth Gallery has been getting to meet some of the artists behind the work now hanging on our walls.

For a regional gallery like ours, exhibitions like this are about so much more than filling a room with beautiful things. They bring artists from different communities together, create conversations between people who may never otherwise meet, and give visitors another reason to walk through the door and see what’s happening.

And lately, there’s been quite a lot happening 👀

Kapunda Kaleidoscope, featuring work from 14 artists from the Kapunda Community Gallery, is exhibiting throughout October and November.

Come in, have a wander, and see what they’ve brought to Waikerie.

What a lovely way to spend a Saturday morning.

Despite the threat of rain, we had a wonderful turnout for the opening of Kapunda Kaleidoscope, our latest exhibition featuring the work of 14 artists from the Kapunda Community Gallery

The weather kept us guessing, so we improvised a little, with an indoor/outdoor opening that saw people wandering through the exhibition, catching up over morning tea and enjoying some live music while the rain (mostly!) behaved itself.

It was especially lovely to welcome several of the exhibiting artists to Waikerie and have the opportunity to hear a little more about the people and stories behind the work.

A big thank you to everyone who joined us across the morning, to our volunteers who helped make it happen, and to the Kapunda artists for bringing such a wonderfully varied collection to our walls.

Kapunda Kaleidoscope is now exhibiting at Rain Moth Gallery throughout October and November, so if you couldn’t make the opening, there’s plenty of time to come in for a wander.

📣 Well, the secret’s officially out. 👀 AND WE WANT YOU TO SHARE IT!!!!

You may have spotted Rain Moth Gallery finally on the front page of the Waikerie & District News, with the news that original works by acclaimed Australian artist David Bromley now have a permanent home right here in Waikerie.

But the part of this story we love most isn’t simply that the Bromleys are here. It’s why Waikerie is part of the story at all.

Because behind the Bromley & Co pieces is a local connection stretching back more than 25 years. It involves a Friday knock-off at the Waikerie Hotel Motel, a phone call to a local backhoe operator, an old farmhouse on Maggea Road that needed work, and one Waikerie local who kept saying yes when another job needed doing.

That local is Geoff Hill.

More than 25 years later, Geoff is still working alongside David, right here in Waikerie, with his own hands quite literally part of the process behind the original works hanging all over the world and now on our walls.

We’ve been waiting to share the full story behind this collection, and now we finally can.

You can now read the full story here https://rainmothgallery.my.canva.site/rainmoth-gallery-david-bromley

We can’t wait for you to see the collection for yourself. Once you know the full story behind these works, their place here in Waikerie makes a whole lot more sense, and we are thrilled they have deep roots here.

Well… we can finally show you 🥳

David Bromley Bromley & Co has arrived at Rain Moth Gallery, and yes, we’re still pinching ourselves a little, too.

A collection of rotating original works and pieces by David Bromley will now be on display permanently in the gallery, right here in Waikerie, thanks to a connection that began locally more than 25 years ago.

But that part of the story might just be our favourite bit. Over the coming days we’ll introduce you properly to Geoff Hill, the Waikerie local whose hands have literally been part of David’s work for more than two decades, and share the rather brilliant story of how all of this began.

For now though, spread the word and come and see it.

Bromley. In Waikerie. At Rain Moth Gallery.
Who KNEW!!?!? 😂

We told you something special was coming! 😉

We’re not giving too much away just yet, but there is a story taking shape behind the scenes at Rain Moth Gallery that I genuinely cannot wait to share with you.

It’s one of those stories that reminds me just how much history, talent and bloody interesting stuff can be sitting right underneath our noses here in Waikerie without most of us knowing a thing about it.

I’ve spent the last couple of months listening, asking questions and slowly joining the dots, and today I finally got to start putting the story on paper.

You’ll understand why very soon. 👀

We love this for Waikerie SO much.
