This year’s Arts Gala elevates one of Nudgee College’s signature events to a new level.
Through a unique partnership with The Toowoomba Gallery, the 2026 Gala will showcase more professional artwork and sought-after pieces than ever before.
Relocated to the Christian Brothers’ Conference Centre to accommodate its continued growth, the Arts Gala is becoming one of Brisbane’s most distinctive community arts events. The expanded two-day program will attract professional artists, collectors, art lovers and supporters from across South East Queensland, alongside the Nudgee College community, creating a unique celebration of art, culture and creativity.
