Coral Street Art Space - Tumbi Tjil-urmi Titi
(Living Arts Centre)
The Coral Street Art Space, established in 2019, is Victor Harbor’s vibrant home for art and culture. Created in response to the community’s vision for a multi-purpose venue, the space welcomes all art forms and serves as a dynamic hub for creativity, learning, and connection.
A cornerstone of the space is its deep respect for Ngarrindjeri and Ramindjeri cultural practices. From its inception, the City of Victor Harbor worked closely with representatives from MIPAAC (Miwi-inyeri Pelepi-ambi Aboriginal Corporation) and local Elders to ensure First Nations voices and traditions are central to the space’s identity. The name Tumbi Tjil-urmi Titi (Living Arts Centre) was gifted by the local Ngarrindjeri language group, with confirmation from linguist Mary-Anne Gale that it honors both Ngarrindjeri and Ramindjeri heritage.
As part of City of Victor Harbor’s broader Arts and Culture Precinct vision, the Coral Street Art Space is committed to nurturing creativity, celebrating diversity, and strengthening cultural tourism in the region. It is a place where stories are shared, traditions are honored, and new ideas come to life - inviting everyone to play their part in the living arts of Victor Harbor.
The Space
The Coral Street Art Space is located in a beautifully preserved state heritage-listed building at 10 Coral Street, Victor Harbor. Originally opened in 1878 as “The Institute,” the building has served the community for nearly 150 years, including as the local library and later the home of the Victor Harbor RSL.
Today, The Space continues this legacy as a vibrant hub for art, culture, and community. It features flexible exhibition areas showcasing local, First Nations, and touring artists, a retail gallery offering unique artworks and handmade goods, and a welcoming workshop space for creative programs and community activities.
With its rich history and contemporary purpose, The Space is a place where creativity and community come together.
