Months of tireless work has come to a crescendo with the opening of Splash at 2:30pm- 4:30pm on Saturday September 14 at The Old Kirk, Yamba Museum. On display will be an eclectic selection of artworks by your favourite Lower Clarence artists. Sponsor and special guest June Alexander will open the exhibition.

More than 20 artists at various stages on their artistic journeys have used their chosen media for this exhibition – oils, acrylics, watercolour, pen, pencil, collage, mixed media, charcoal and block print. Framed and unframed works will be available for purchase.

The exhibition will run at the Old Kirk, Yamba Museum from Saturday 14 September to Sunday 13 October. Art Group members will be in attendance daily to discuss and assist viewers.

Since the upheaval of COVID shutdowns, the art group is now back into the swing of things and tasks were set to stimulate and inspire individual artists. Topics included Asia, Portraits, Still Life, Black and White, Animals, Architecture, Nature, Seascapes and of course Abstract. Selected topic challenges will be included in this exciting exhibition along with other sought after works. The Group meets each Tuesday at Maclean Showground’s old tea rooms, from 9am.
