Space for artists

FEELING like a taste of local art? Look no further than the City of Casey’s Contemporary Artists’ Exhibition, held at the Casey Civic Centre Art Space this month.
The exhibition, running until 27 November, features an impressive range of thought-provoking contemporary art pieces submitted by 20 artists throughout Casey.
Casey Mayor Amanda Stapledon said this is the biggest exhibition that the council has ever held.
“The art show explores a variety of mediums, scales and approaches from a range of artists from across the City of Casey,” she said.
“Not just for art enthusiasts, I strongly encourage all members of the public to come down and view the exhibition.”
Following the success of this year’s exhibition, applications are already open to exhibit in the 2014 Civic Centre Art Space Program.
The program provides a great opportunity for local artists to exhibit their work in a professional exhibition space free of charge.
Artists working in a range of mediums including painting, printmaking, photography, drawing, sculpture and craft-based practises are encouraged to apply.
