The year so far….

President Gail Groat and Treasurer Val Waylen at the opening of the Balranald Exhibition.

The group has been very busy this year. Our Annual General Meeting was held in January and we welcomed a new President, Gail Groat and Treasurer, Val Waylen (pictured below at the Balranald Exhibition Opening).

We travelled to Balranald and exhibited a collection of art, new and old for 6 weeks. The exhibition ran from the last week of January until mid March. At the conclusion MASH donated $100 to the Balranald art gallery as a thank you.

February: In conjunction with the Woorinen District Progress Association we were granted funding to create 5 small murals for the Woorinen South township. This was a community project with members of MASH supporting residents to paint the murals. These are now in their final stages of detailing and further funding is being sought for the installation. (see the Mural Project Post for more information)

WORKSHOPS: We have held 4 “First Wednesdays”

February: Mixed media (newspaper trees on painted background) with Maxine

March: Funky Trees and Animals with Merrilyn

April: Meditation and mixed media faces with Donna and Gail (Lorri was ill)

May: Neurographics with Donna

Upcoming in June: Paint like Picasso with Jenny and Norma

Please bring good quality paper suitable for the medium you choose, or can be done in your journal. A pencil and eraser. A dice. A Black Marker ie Sharpie or similar and paints, (watercolour or Acylic), pencils, paint pens. Whatever you like working with.
