EVENT DETAILS
We have a more themed exhibition than normal. We are also changing our layout a little. We have a dedicated community artist area, a gift shop, a limited edition print room, a curated gallery section and we are removing the remaining window vinyls, so we will have some insane window displays.
Step into the radiant world of ‘ART of Being', an immersive art exhibition that celebrates the courageous odyssey each individual embarks on as they navigate life's diverse challenges.
Through a vibrant collection of artworks, this exhibition extends an invitation to all to experience the transformative power of resilience, vulnerability, courage, and hope.
Every piece on display stands as a testament to humanity's remarkable ability to rise above adversity and emerge with potentially a different perspective. From captivating paintings to evocative mixed media creations, each artist offers a unique perspective on the journey of healing and personal growth.
As guests embark on their journey through the gallery space, they will encounter tales of triumph amidst trials, conveyed through vivid colours, intricate textures, and thought-provoking symbolism.
These artistic expressions serve as mirrors, inviting viewers to reflect on their own stories of overcoming challenges and discovering light in the midst of darkness.
Ultimately, ‘ART of Being' is a joyous celebration of the unyielding spirit of the human heart and a heartfelt tribute to the courageous souls who dare to embark on the transformative journey through the shadows, emerging stronger, wiser, and more resilient than before.
Don't miss out on this exciting exhibition!
