Welcome to the website of the Beaudesert Community Arts and Information Centre. The aim of our centre is firstly to provide a showcase for local art and craft. Amongst our talented contributors are painters, sculptors, textile artists, woodworkers, writers, musicians, paper artists and food providores. As most of our contributors also man the centre from time to time, you will meet them when you come to visit.
We also provide information for visitors to the area, and it is our staff members' personal extensive knowledge which helps people who come here from all parts of the world to enjoy our special region.
The centre is also a meeting place for community groups.
At present we are open from 9am-4pm on weekdays, and 9am-3pm on weekends.
On the website you'll find out what's happening in the area from our calendar and from our "What's on" page. There'll also be reports on recent events.

Lockdown closure alert
Our Beaudesert Information Centre and Lyrebird Gallery will be closed during the Brisbane and surrounding areas lockdown over the next few days. Whilst we in the Scenic Rim are not required to lock down, we think that it's safer to do so, as we are close to affected areas. We'll be closed from Saturday 9 January until Monday 11 January. All being well, we'll re-open on Tuesday 12 January at 9am.

Market Fest starts up again
Last Saturday saw our Market Fest open again, after 6 months of hibernation due to the corona virus. The lovely spring day brought a big crowd.
Our Information centre kitchen sold takeaway teas and coffees, cold drinks and ice creams only, with visitors queuing up outside the Centre to order and collect their drinks.
We look forward to regular monthly markets now, albeit with corona virus restrictions!
