To support and grow South Australian Living Artists (SALA) Festival activity within the City of Victor Harbor, Council is offering full Early Bird registration fee rebates for eligible SALA exhibitions held within the council area.

This initiative is designed to encourage more artists and exhibitions to activate local spaces during SALA, strengthening our cultural life and attracting visitors throughout August.
