River Gum by Peter Hill was judged Best in Show for 2019
WAG TIME AGAIN….FOR THE 10TH YEAR!
The Wooli Artists Gathering (WAG) is again holding the Wild About Wooli Art Show.
WAG, which was formed in November 2010, is composed of people connected with Wooli who are artists, or have an interest in art. The beauty and unique location of Wooli and its surrounding area have attracted many artists and stimulated people to develop their artistic talents. However this growing collection of artists remained largely invisible.
Prompted by the Protect Wooli campaign, it was thought important to draw positive attention to the value of Wooli, by collecting and widely
promoting Wooli ‘s artist community. Those who attend meetings and express interest in the Gathering ‘s aims are members.
There is no membership charge or criteria, except for involvement or interest in artistic endeavours. The exhibition has been held every year since 2011.
The 2020 Wild About Wooli Art Show will present exhibits of regional artists including painting, drawing & print making, textile art, sculpture & ceramics, photography.
Our Picture Hanging Solutions are purchased from Shakespeare Solutions. Ian Rees has once again generously provided the venue for the show at the Wooli Hotel Motel.
Our thanks to Marc McIntyre and Steve Pickering from Coldstream Gallery, Ulmarra for judging the 2020 entries.
It opens with a cocktail party on Friday 10th of April 2020 at 6.30pm and continues on Saturday 11th, from 10.00am to 3.00pm and
Sunday 12th of April, 11.00am to 2.00pm.
All the details you’ll need for the show are here in the Invitation to Artists and in the Public Invitation.
Professionals and amateurs alike are welcome to exhibit – artists, photographers and those who like to experiment with other media. Children’s works will also be displayed, so get painting, kids.
A People‘s Choice prize will be awarded and there are prizes for various categories. Last year’s exhibition was another resounding success and many sales were made.
