There has been an amazing array of art on display since KernART’s inception three years ago with experienced and respected artists vying for the three top prizes. Beginning and emerging artists are encouraged to enter the novice section and there is also a section for children’s art which has featured work by some budding artists over the years.
KernART is working with Bass Coast Health to raise funds for the children of people with mental health issues. Profits from the show will help BCH to provide these local children with support whether it is through sporting activities, arts and crafts or music.
Entries can be made online at our website www.KernARTprize.com, which includes entry details and conditions. All mediums are encouraged, including paintings, original prints, sculpture and photography. Entries close on October 18.
The art show is at the Kernot Community Hall, 1060 Loch-Kernot Rd, between 10am and 3pm on Saturday November 2 and Sunday November 3. Entry is by a gold coin donation.
There will be a “dress to impress” grand opening on Friday November 1, from 7-9pm. Food and drink supplied. Entry is $20 per person with free entry to exhibiting artists.
Inquiries to the secretary, Janice Orchard, on 0419 301 363.
