Edition 24 | March 2026
From the editor:
A huge thank you to those of you in our local community who called into see my solo exhibition in Hobart recently. I was most delighted to see you. The exhibition was an incredible opportunity.
We’ve started our weekly Kids Art Club and have a great bunch of interested and engaging kids coming along. We have been drawing and painting, and are working out what they could enter into the upcoming Campbell Town Show.
The show theme has been announced as: REGENERATION for anyone wishing to enter this year. Keep your eye out for details here: https://www.campbelltownshow.com/
Our ‘on trial’ Paint n Sip sessions have been quite popular. Our final trial session is this Saturday, 4-6.30pm if you might be interested in attending.
I will have a stall at the upcoming ‘Music, Picnic, Market’ event at The Church Campbell Town on Sunday 29 March. See details below.
As a one-off we won’t be having a clay workshop during March, however we will be for April, May and beyond. Please see the calendar of events below.
Roadworks may be causing disruption to street parking… please aim to hit up the side streets when you next visit Campbell Town.
Our colour pencil drawing extraordinaire, Richard Klekociuk will be opening his next exhibition with us this Sunday, 8 March – with a very special door prize. Starts at 2.30pm. Details below.
Thanks for reading,
Lee-Anne Peters
