The picture postcard town of Cooran was in full creative flourish on the weekend as artists and enthusiasts mingled and inspired for the annual Tall Trees event.
The sight of Charmain Meehan’s colourful cow at the town’s entry was an indication of more to come and visitors would not have been disappointed with the amazing diversity and array of art displayed at venues up and down the main street.Event organiser Mia Hacker said it was an “awesome” weekend where people took the time to walk the town with friends and family and have conversations inspired by the art. Lots of artwork was sold over the weekend and the exhibitions provided a venue for artists to leap into future projects.
Mia said an art exhibition in Brisbane’s CBD and another at the Queensland Museum and Art Gallery were just two of the projects to result from Tall Trees.
She praised the efforts of the many volunteers and all the businesses that come together to make the event happen each year.
