Art exhibition
USQ's students produce plays, films, and entertainment shows addressing culture, gender identity, and struggles of young people, including "Ghosts of Leigh" by Dallas Baker, "Velvet Bourlevard" by Ian Fulton, and "I dated Batman" by Tammy Sarah. The university also established the Bruce Dawe Poetry Prize (named after the university's first honorary professor for his contribution to the university) in 1999 to honour the most prominent poets in Australia. In addition, USQ Artsworx, established as an art venue and production house, supports students, artists, and community art activities through its McGregor Summer School, McGregor bursary, exhibition sponsorships at Downland Art exhibition, Hampton Art exhibition, GraduArt exhibition (annual art exhibition by USQ's students), and art exhibition raising funds for breast cancer treatment at St. Vincent Hospital.
