Now in its 5th year, the Wild About Wooli Art Show has become an Easter tradition in the pretty Northern NSW holiday village of Wooli.
Held each year on the Easter long weekend, this year (2015) the Wooli Art Show is officially opened on Friday 3 April and the exhibition will continue on Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 April 2015.
The Wild About Wooli Art Show features a range of artworks from both amateurs and professional artists in the region. There is also a children’s category.
All artworks have the same theme: “coastal“, but they can come in many forms, from paintings and works on paper to sculptures and fabric art.
For a visual treat, make sure you visit the Wooli Hotel Motel this Easter to check out the artworks.
The official Opening Night starts at 6.30pm on Good Friday (3 April 2015) and the organisers are inviting everyone to attend. Tickets are available at the door for $10 (adults)/$5 (children) and includes a drink and nibbles.
The exhibition is only on for one weekend and ends Easter Sunday (5 April 2015), so don’t miss it. Entry on the weekend is via a gold coin donation.
The Wild About Wooli Art Show is organised by the Wooli Artists Gathering (WAG), formed in 2010 by a group of artists and those interested in art, who are locals or have a connection to Wooli.
Here’s an idea: The works on display will all be available for sale, so go on down and find yourself an artistic souvenir from Wooli or a unique gift for a loved one.
While you’re there, don’t forget to vote for your favourite artwork for the People’s Choice prize.
Proceeds of the Wild About Wooli Art Show will support efforts of the Coastal Communities Protection Alliance-Wooli Inc to ensure Wooli remains a unique and inspirational Aussie icon.
