Our 67th Annual Exhibition and Sale – 2019

Our 67th Annual Exhibition and Sale – 6-8 September 2019

191 paintings from 48 artists from both art groups made a wonderful exhibition. The opening night was well attended and Councillor Raylene Carr opened the exhibition and presented the Mayoral Award for the Best In Show. A highlight was where the judge Ben Winspear told us all why he chose particular paintings for awards. The paintings were well displayed and plenty of visitors commented on the continually improving standard.  It was an excellent exhibition so put it in your calendar and be a part of it next year.

A special thank you to all of our sponsors https://boxhillartgroup.com.au/our-sponsors/
