It includes portraits of local artists, past mayors, and school children from the region; it is a time capsule of the community. It connects the past and the present together by inviting community members who took part in this creative project to view and celebrate the rediscovery of these portraits.
An eclectic range of mediums, techniques, and skill levels are on display from the multi-generational artists represented in this show. It beautifully reflects the diversity of creativity that can be found in the community. This exhibition forms part of the Australian Heritage Festival, with the 2024 theme being: Connections.
Pure joy as you wake to the sunrise. Awe as you make it to the snowy peak. A sense of adventure as you motor across red plains. The relief of rejuvenation as you wade into an alpine stream. Connection as you taste native, fragrant leaves. A sense of belonging as you return to your favourite holiday house. Freedom as you dash into the waves. Discover the endless feelings a visit to NSW can inspire.
