At ILLUTREFF Salzburg, it’s not about who has the biggest stage, the most beautiful brushstrokes or the biggest commissions.
It’s about inspiring one another, complementing each other’s work and creating space for new ideas.
Founded by Jill Goritschnig, Maria Schmid and Franziska Oerter, Illutreff has a clear vision: greater visibility, stronger connections and more exchange within Salzburg’s creative community.
The idea behind Illutreff Salzburg
With Atelier M7 für Inklusive Kunst, the perfect venue for this networking event was found, and in 2026, Illutreff Salzburg was officially founded there.
What began as a shared drawing session has evolved into a network attracting growing interest from Salzburg’s creative community.
One of Illutreff’s main goals is to showcase the diversity of illustration. From editorial illustration and children’s books to character design, comics, urban sketching and experimental formats.
Illutreff not only supports individual illustrators but also helps establish art as an integral part of Salzburg’s creative landscape.
Exchange, not competition
What makes Illutreff special is its atmosphere: openness, mutual support and a genuine interest in one another. Emerging illustrators meet experienced professionals, traditional artists connect with digital artists, and commissioned creatives exchange ideas with independent artists.
Illutreff Salzburg demonstrates just how important face-to-face encounters are in an increasingly digital industry. It creates space for exchange, inspiration and mutual encouragement, helping to build lasting connections within Salzburg’s illustration community.
