Twenty-seven unique aprons created by local artists will bring art into the houses of Noosa.
The innovative “Art is Served” project, undertaken by Noosa Open Studios artists, celebrates the involvement of local food and art enthusiast Matt Golinski as Noosa Open Studios’ 2023 patron.
“Aprons are used by artists and by chefs. Artistically created, aprons can become a fashion accessory or an art item for display, beyond its domestic functionality,” NOS 2023 president Simone Leao said.
The ‘arty aprons’ will be auctioned at a ticketed fundraising event at the Cooroy Butter Factory Art Centre on the evening of Friday 1 September, catered with canapes and drinks by Matt Golinski.
The auction also includes 5 Experiences, which will give to the winners the opportunity to spend a day with their favourite artist making art together.
By attending the fundraising event, you will get access to a premiere look at the Studio 100 Art Exhibition with artwork of all 2023 Noosa Open Studio artists. The Studio 100 will be officially launched on Saturday 2 September from 5pm, and open for visits at the Cooroy Butter Factory from 2-10 September, 10am to 3pm.
All funds raised from the auction will go towards promoting Noosa Open Studios to support our local artists and the artistic and cultural richness of our Noosa region.
Tickets will be on sale soon. Keep an eye on their website noosaopenstudios.com.au or follow them on Facebook @noosaopenstudios.
