PARTICIPATION
The Expo Committee invites you to be part of this exciting community event, now in its 8th year. The Expo runs because a small bunch of local volunteers loves to support and build community through art, bringing people together to celebrate our special environment and shared creative spirit. And mostly it runs because of you, the artist, art lover, art purchaser, art student, school student, would-be artist, community member.... your participation makes this event our biggest creative gathering in Ocean Shores.
LIONS CLUB PEACE POSTER
The Art Expo was initially under the umbrella of the local Lions club and we are greatful that the Lions Club Brunswick/ Mullumbimby continues their involvement.This year if registered before hand students age 11 to 13 may participate in the Lions Club International Peace Poster Contest, see details.
We are again this year at our local Public School, Ocean Shores Primary in Shara Boulevard. The event is co-inciding with a weekend of Art and Craft put on by the school PnC organization together with the School Principal, Chris Hauritz. The school has a huge auditorium surrounded by vast lawns, ideal for displays, workshops and performance, an under-cover cafe, extra rooms for demonstrations, local history talks and workshops and a mini amphitheatre for audio-visual. Again this year a grant has been secured, funding local artists to share their skills through workshops over the weekend.
Cafe
Saturday and Sunday 9am - 3pm the PnC is operating a cafe serving nutritional food with hot and cold drinks.
CREATING TO THE THEME
The Expo Committee each year wants to help artists funnel their creative ideas with a theme and this year has come up with the theme for 2011: "Life's Surprises". It is our hope that this will inspire artists yet again to produce some amazing creative works. Each year we have been impressed by the many interpretations of the themes, giving voice to commentary by artists in social, political, environmental and spiritual dimensions. School students have been particularly imaginative with their insights on the themes.
DATES
The Expo 2011 is held from 26th to 28th August, Opening Party on Friday 26th, with Thursday 25th for delivery of artworks. The Entry will be available online from early May and closing date for entries will be early August, about three weeks before the Expo. All details will be posted on this website, so keep checking in.Alternatively join our "Facebook group" where some news and updates are posted and you the artist can post comments as well.
