Upper Lachlan Shire Council is about to embark on an exciting, new community initiative, The Roving Art Exhibition. As many would know Council holds in trust for the community many excellent art works. These are to be found at Council premises and the Crookwell Art Gallery. A selection of these works will go ‘on the road’ and visit a number of community and memorial halls in our villages across our Shire. As well as giving communities an opportunity to admire these art works we are encouraging local artists and creatives to also exhibit their works, hold workshops or other event to make this special.
To date we have:
Dalton
23-25 August, Friday night opening with drinks and canapés $10
Open 10- 4 Saturday and Sunday. Coffee and cake available at the historic Royal Hotel.
Tuena
31 August-1 September
On Saturday, book in for an Alcohol Ink painting class with Gabe Saville or a Xmas Wreath making class with Lesley Hall.
The Tuena Cafe and Craft Shop will be open all weekend.
