Discovering creative potential
LOCALS can discover their creative potential at Tablelands Regional Council’s range of arts workshops that offer a unique opportunity to hone skills and explore new mediums.
The workshops, which will all be held at the Old Post Office Gallery in November, offer a variety of options – from creating Christmas decorations and to ukulele workshops and acting.
“These workshops are a great opportunity for everyone to have a go, regardless of their skill level or experience,” Regional Arts Development Fund Advisory Committee Chair Cr Kevin Cardew said.
“From painting and sculpture to digital art, music and professional development, our diverse range of classes are led by renowned local and visiting artists dedicated to fostering a vibrant artistic community.”
The workshops are known to be popular so anyone wishing to attend should book early through www.eventbrite.com.au/o/tablelands-regional-council-31809515779 to secure a place.
