Situated in the heart of Midland, Midland Junction Arts Centre is a vibrant visual and performing arts facility managed by Mundaring Arts Centre Inc. It delivers a curated exhibition program, gift shop featuring West Australian artists, an arts education program with workshops for all ages, an artist-in-residence program and a range of cultural projects and events.
The historic building is available for community hire, with three galleries, three classrooms, three studios, a 142-seat theatre, a ceramics studio, a print studio, a function room and a meeting room.
The Town Hall is one of Midland's best known buildings. It is an outstanding example of the Federation Free Classical architectural style.
Midland Town Hall was officially opened in 1907. However, it wasn't until after World War I that the clock was placed on top of the dome. The clock serves as a memorial to the men who lost their lives during the War.
In the 1950s, the Town Hall continued to serve as the Council Chambers and Administration Centre for the Midland Junction Municipal Council until 1970. By the 1960s, the building had become quite dilapidated and after the 1968 Meckering earthquake, came under threat of demolition.
Some restoration work was undertaken on the building in the 1970s and 80s, with major work commencing in 1995. The first part of the restored complex, comprising Council Chambers, meeting rooms and offices was officially opened in 1997. The second and final stage of the project was finished and opened in grand style with a Mayoral Ball in April 2000.
It is regularly used for the City of Swan's citizenship ceremonies.
Midland is located 30 minutes east of Perth. It is the city centre for the nearby Swan Valley wine region and historic town of Guildford.

Glowing softly in the heart of Lennox Head, Migaloo is a stunning galvanised metal and LED light sculpture by local artist Kerrith Giese. The artwork serves as a luminous reminder of the annual humpback whale migration that graces the Northern Rivers coastline - and of the rare and much-loved white whale, Migaloo, who sometimes passes by these very shores.
Now sighted for over 30 years, Migaloo has become a symbol of wonder and connection to the ocean. This sculpture captures that spirit - the light, movement, and awe of seeing the whales on their journey north.
Kerrith Giese is a Northern Rivers artist whose work often explores the connection between people, place, and nature. Her sculptural pieces combine creativity and craft, transforming metal and light into expressive forms that engage and inspire. Migaloo continues her exploration of how art can reflect the rhythm of the natural world and our deep relationship with the sea.

To acknowledge the significance of the first known European contact with the Aboriginal people of the area, Cook Shire Council decided to have a Memorial to tell from an Aboriginal point of view.
Council invited local Aboriginal people to tell their story in ceramic tiles and build a Story Wall right at the spot where, in 1770, Captain James Cook and his crew first set foot.
The Milbi Wall was developed by a group of local Aboriginal artists and storytellers, with assistance from a well-known potter and the Gungarde Aboriginal Corporation.
The 12m long Milbi Wall was built in three sections.
Part one explains the Creation Stories and shows how the Endeavour River and Cooktown were made.
Part two commemorates the first historic meeting between Aboriginal people and Captain Cook and his crew. It traces the history of Aboriginal people from the early settlement times and the gold-rush days, until the Second World War.
Part three depicts the important 1967 referendum when the Australian people overwhelmingly recognised the right of Aboriginal people to equality with all other Australians and it shows the advances Aboriginal people have made as well as recognising the problems they have faced.

The Milestones Sculptures in Cootamundra and Wallendbeen are striking public artworks that celebrate the enduring significance of wheat growing in this rich agricultural region of New South Wales. Officially unveiled in 1997, these sculptures were developed through a strong community effort and now form distinctive landmarks in both towns. They are located at Parker Street and Morris Street in Cootamundra and at Mackay Park in Wallendbeen, inviting visitors to reflect on the region's farming heritage.
Each sculpture is crafted from cast materials and painted in golden hues symbolic of ripened wheat fields, with fibre-optic lighting enhancing their presence after dark. The design draws inspiration from historical milestones, echoing the markers that once defined distances between rural settlements. Their motifs include representations of wheat and rural life, acknowledging the vital role that cereal crops have played in shaping local identity and economy.
Today the Milestones Sculptures are more than static displays. They act as cultural beacons and photographic highlights for travellers exploring the mid-north Riverina, offering both educational context and aesthetic delight. They provide a meaningful connection between Cootamundra, Wallendbeen and the wider agricultural story of Australia.
