Friday night was our exhibition opening and it was fantastic! About 150 people turned up to enjoy the art, live entertainment and help raise funds for the Leukeamia Foundation.

Everyone was mesmorised by the Tribal Blossoms and their sword dancing and the singing by The Bare Truth in the gallery added a wonderful atmosphere. So much talent under one roof!

Deborah's wooden sculptures cast realistic shadows of dancers on the walls, while people were fascinated with;
Carry's realism in her paintings
Nola's clever use of colour and mixed mediums
Nicks drawings with their interesting subjects
Michelle's photographs with their quirky displays

Unfortunatety the art is only on display until tomorrow afternoon. Thank you to all who contributed to a great night and who came as guests to enjoy the night - much appreciated.
