Art My Word. Visual artists registering for the challenge, will receive a random book, no longer in circulation at the library. They will use the book as a base for their new 2D or 3D artwork. They have free interpretation and free choice of medium. They may read their book to find inspiration, they may open a random page to find inspiring words, they may research the topic of the book, or they may use the book itself to make a piece of art. The options are endless, and it is up to each artist how they approach the challenge. Will they use the book itself to create a new piece of art or will they be inspired by the book?

Art My Story launched in 2022 and invites storytellers to register for the written challenge. They are given a kit containing a random photo and basic information to base their new written piece on. They may be inspired by the photo itself, its title, the place the photo was taken or the time of the photo. Any writing style can be applied; text is limited to 1000 words. The written pieces for the Art My Story component were made into a book publication in 2023 thanks to a grant from the Regional Arts Development Fund and Redland City Council.

Art My Photo was introduced in 2023 to the Art My Word Experience. The community was invited to supply an interesting and quirky photo they have taken, from anywhere around the world. These photos made up a kit with minimal information such as the title of the photo, where and when the photo was taken, and was presented to the Art My Story participants. In 2025 we decided to give random prompts to photographers too. They all received a chance colour and based their 2025 photo on the colour itself, or the name of the colour. They did a brilliant job!

​

Art My Tune is the latest component of the event. Each musician will receive a random picture of a previous artwork from Art My Word and base their new piece of music on it. This will be presented on the Art My Tune Day.
