Contemporary Art Society - 7 to 22 March

Ceramics Victoria 14 February to 1 March

Australia Day Weekend and the Sculpture Exhibition Opening

HISAF 2009 in action with WASA

The Wildlife Art Society of Australasia started HISAF 2009 with a perfect day - the weather sunny and mild, the island and gallery in great shape and the art, which includes paintings, drawings, prints and sculpture - well worth the visit.

On opening day Vida Pearson was the resident demonstrating artist. Throughout the show other Wildlife artists will be at the gallery, demonstrating their work and talking to people.

While we were away.....

The swans hatched cygnets and life moved along......

Ceramics Victoria - the Sculpture Prize - 5th to 20th April

And what a note to finish on! The sculpture prize was awarded with due ceremony on the 5th - the public have been treated to a great show of ceramic sculptural works - the whimsical, the naive, the playful, the sophisticated - all on Herring Island.

Koorie Heritage Trust 15th to 30th March

Koorie Heritage Trust brought us artists that are also represented in KHT's three galleries in King Street - and the more casual environment of Herring Island introduced a lot of people to the work that the Trust does. Quite an eye opener all round.
