Five Continents – Six Artists features artists from around the world including A1one from Iran, Scottish stencil artist Klingatron, Sao Paulo artist Daniel Melim, former US soldier Larry Cyr, Cape Town artist Kudzanai Chiurai and Melbourne’s own Ralf Kempken.

DeVinyl08 – a showcase of limited edition vinyl toys submitted by artists from around the world, indicating the latest trend, where design and art meet.

Stencil Festival’s traditional Group Show, which includes the Emerging Artist Award Competition and includes 15 selected international and 15 Australian artists from six states and territories.
