Join interior designer Nikki McGar for an inspiring conversation exploring the relationship between art and the spaces we call home. Discover why art should be more than an afterthought, how original works can shape an entire interior, and why collecting meaningful, handcrafted pieces creates homes with warmth, character and soul.

Presented alongside the 2026 Artists in Residence Exhibition at the Hope & Autumn Display Suite by Up Property, this special event celebrates the artists behind the work while offering practical insights into choosing, displaying and designing around art. Whether you're renovating, building or simply looking to create a home that feels more personal, you'll leave with fresh ideas and the confidence to see your home as a collection of your stories.
