FROM WYNNUM MANLY ARTS COUNCIL
Local children with a passion for art are being offered a unique chance to have their creativity celebrated in a public exhibition. The Wynnum Manly Arts Council’s annual Kaleidoscope exhibition will now include a showcase for children under 17 years, with this year’s theme being By the Bay.
Leading the initiative is Tamara Beale, a respected practising artist and art educator with over 25 years of experience. Known for her nurturing approach and ability to inspire young minds, Tamara will be guiding participants through a hands-on workshop where each child will produce their very own exhibition-ready piece.
The workshops are scheduled across three convenient sessions: Saturday, June 28 at 9:30am; Monday, June 30 at 1:00pm; and Friday, July 4 at 9:30am. Each session runs for two-and-a-half hours, offering children ample time to explore their artistic ideas in a supportive and creative environment.
Hosted at the Wynnum Manly Arts space within the Wynnum Community Centre on Florence Street, the workshops promise a welcoming and accessible venue for young artists to explore their potential. The $45 registration fee includes all art materials and guaranteed entry of the finished work into the Kaleidoscope exhibition.
Spaces are limited and bookings are essential to secure a place in one of the sessions. Parents are encouraged to reserve a spot early via Eventbrite to avoid disappointment (see page 6 for the QR code).
This is a wonderful opportunity for children to see their artwork displayed in a professional setting, build confidence, and enjoy the enriching experience of artistic expression under expert guidance.
