​

Since it began in 2021, MOSMAN ART WALK has become a beloved local event supporting artists, retailers and Mosman High art students

​

For the sixth year, the shops and businesses of Mosman will host this unique art trail and school fundraiser running for three weeks, 19 February to 10 March 2026. Mosman Art Walk showcases the diverse works of 67 acclaimed Australian artists including Ken Done, Ann Cape, Pamela Honeyfield, Evert Ploeg and Stephen Ormandy, many of them Mosman residents.

 

New artists this year include acclaimed Mosman artist Jumaadi, former Mosman High student Mirra Whale and award-winning photographer and Mosman High parent Gavin Libotte.

 

The works of these professional artists are displayed in shop windows around the Mosman village, from bookshops to jewellery stores, estate agents to optometrists, fashion boutiques to hair salons. In 2026 many new retailers have joined us, including Bassike, Perri Cutten, Saba, The Upside and Belle Property.

 

During the Art Walk, anyone can stroll the streets for free to enjoy the artworks including paintings, prints, sculptures, photography and ceramics. All works are also for sale, so if you love an artwork, you can buy it on the spot via QR code, or via the Mosman Art Walk website. For each sale, 30 per cent is donated to support Mosman High School’s art program, and 70 per cent goes direct to the artist.

 

Mosman Art Walk was established in 2021 by the Mosman High Art Committee of parents and volunteers, in response to the Covid pandemic restrictions. The aim was to support local artists, businesses and Mosman High’s art students and teachers with a Covid-safe event easily accessible for everyone. Since then, the event has grown into a popular cultural event attracting visitors from around Sydney and significantly boosting foot traffic for retailers.

​

Committee Chair Ann King says, “We are so happy to celebrate six years of this event, which has gone from strength to strength since we began. Each year our participating retailers have been amazing, trusting us with their display windows, and the Walk has been embraced whole-heartedly by the local community as an annual cultural highlight. We have also had invaluable financial support from Mosman High's P&C and Mosman Council.”

​

Mosman High School principal Susan Wyatt said, “It has been wonderful to see the collaboration of parents, artists and Mosman businesses to present this special event year after year. It is an inspiration to our students and offers them invaluable support. It has also created strong connections between the school and our local community. We welcome all the people of Mosman, and around Sydney, to join us at our art exhibition with a difference.”

 

Local businesses involved in Mosman Art Walk are excited to display their artworks, curated specifically for their space, which often bring in new customers as people stop to look. Funds raised by the event have enhanced the creative development of Mosman High’s art students, including inviting influential keynote speakers to the school, buying specialist equipment, and supporting immersive art camps and tours, resulting in enhanced skills and work.

 

The Mosman High Art Committee would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land, the Borogegal and Cammeraygal, who have practiced their art and culture here for countless generations. Beginning with its First Peoples, Mosman has always inspired artists living and working here. From the 1890s, Curlew Artists Camp at Sirius Cove hosted acclaimed painters such as Arthur Streeton and Tom Roberts; the Mosman Art Prize began in 1947, now run by the Mosman Art Gallery which has been a generous supporter of the Mosman Art Walk.

 

Also proudly supported by Mosman High P&C; Mosman Council through the Community Grants program; and our new Community Partner joining us in 2026, Mosman property professionals Murphy Residential.
