TAG Art Show Artists show their works L-R:Carole Hampson,Jennie Smith,Janet Luttrell,Virginia Spencer-Bower, Bev Byrne.

It’s been three years since Tinbeerwah Art Group artists have been able to have a gala opening for their annual display of their work and organiser Jan Cooke is convinced their art show which opens on Friday 16 September, will be the finest since the group first set up their easels in 1994.

“Covid put a stop to having a gala opening for our exhibition but now I can say such is our members’ enthusiasm the show will not only be the best but, with more than 100 paintings, the biggest,” Jan, who has been organising the show for the last eight years, said.

She said funds raised from artists’ donations, a raffle and a gold coin entry fee would be donated to Katie Rose Cottage Hospice in memory of group founder Gwen Blair who died at the hospice in 2013.

Deputy Mayor Frank Wilkie will open the show at the Gala Opening on Friday 16 September. The show closes on Sunday 18 September.

Tinbeerwah Hall is on the corner Sunrise and Noosa-Cooroy Rd, Tinbeerwah.

Opening times, Friday, September 16, 12 noon-5pm, gala opening 5.30pm. Saturday, September 17, 9am – 4.30pm, Sunday, September 18, 9.30am – 3pm.
