New Ceramics Workshops

There's a new course of the hugely popular ceramics classes with Port Fairy's best-loved ceramicist, Meg Finnegan, starting this week. They are held either Tuesday afternoons for six weeks, or Wednesday mornings for six weeks. You can select the session time that suits you best. Free-form fun with the option of using a variety of clays, techniques, including wheel-thrown, and all works can and will be glazed and fired. A great way to get started for beginners, or for people who want to revive old skills! Bookings through our 'Activities & Events' page.

"Synergy" exhibition - collection of artworks - and our next exhibition.

Thank you to all our members and other artists who submitted artworks for our annual community exhibition. We have had great feedback from the many locals and visitors who came through the gallery and several sales. Buyers and artists are asked to please collect their artworks between 10.00am Sunday 2nd February and 4.00pm Tuesday 4th February. If you are unable to collect your artworks between these times, please contact the exhibition committee (exhibitions@swmakers.com.au) to make alternative arrangements.

Our next exhibition is "Etched in Memory", paintings by Leanne Onley, from the Grampians region. The opening of that exhibition will be Thursday 6th February at 6.00pm. We encourage all members and the wider community to come along and support Leanne, especially since the tragic and worrying bushfires and evacuations over the summer season.

Moyneyana Festival

As part of the Moyneyana Festival, we had a very successful family workshop day at Glyph's Creative Space creating fish sculptures from cane and tissue paper! This was initiated and led by Freya Marriott & Robert Gatt, and a team of enthusiastic volunteers, and entertained some 50+ children over the course of two separate workshops! Brilliant effort, and wonderful results! Happy faces everywhere!
