The Turning of the Tide

Our theme for this years' Flinders Ranges "A Brush With Art" is the Turning of The Tide.
Many members took up the tidal theme and the transformation to the gallery reflects this in a definite change in colour. It is great to see so many of our members participating and experimenting with new concepts and ideas.
A huge thank you to Sandy, Gayle, Cheryl, Pam, Lynda and Georgie who all contributed to the makeover and tidy up of the gallery in readiness for the opening day on Saturday.

 The exhibition will roll into October.











Sharron Jones has been negotiating with Luke Thurgate 
https://www.acsa.sa.edu.au/the-school/staff/academic-staff/luke-thurgate/  

Who will be working with her students in November.
Luke is willing to hold a workshop of about 3 hours duration on Saturday November 16th.
More information will be sent out soon but lock in the date for a new and different experience.

 Well we are off to a great start in this our 60th Year.  Our Current FRINGE exhibition " Creative Selfies" is an eclectic mix providing an entertaining viewing experience.

Although these are catering for all ages they are engaging for adults as well so feel free to attend. Welcome to new member Jen Cleary. You can find her lovely bags at The Platform Lynne Ward has brought in some new jewellery pieces as well.
