The changing faces of art

FIFTY-FIVE local artists have joined forces for the PopUp!Art exhibition at the Cooroy Butter Factory that will see a new exhibition displayed each month.
The rolling exhibitions will include local artists and artisans who will combine their works in workshops, demonstrations and art pieces for mini pop-up galleries that will rotate monthly.
The exhibition will officially open on Friday 24 April at 6pm with councillor Tony Wellington as the guest speaker.
The exhibition will be open to the public from Thursday 23 April to Saturday 29 August, and with a changing exhibition, art buffs can visit as many times as they like – they will not be disappointed, there will always be something new.
There will also be an opportunity to get creative with free family activities on the third Saturday of each month, from 10am to noon.
On Thursday 30 May those interested will be able to meet exhibiting artists for floor talks to learn about the exhibitions and the motivations behind each artist’s work.
The tour starts at 10.30am and runs for an hour.
Everyone is welcome and the cost is a gold coin donation.
The Butter Factory Arts Centre is at 10 Maple Street, Cooroy, and is open from Tuesday to Friday from 10am to 4pm and on Saturday from 10am to noon.
