SmArt Workshop
On Thursday 14th November, a select group of students had a full day workshop at the Queen Victoria Art Gallery with a focus on careers in the Arts. This day was supported by The Smith Family.
We had guest talks from an Art Education Officer, Gallery Attendant, a Street Artist, Exhibition Designer and Art Curator.
We got to meet artist, Josh Foley, while he was painting in the main gallery. Josh has won the Glover Prize, among other awards, and his vivid work is well recognised.
He has taken over the Main Gallery at the Royal Park site to produce an artwork titled ‘Calculating Infinity’.
This exhibition ties in with MONA FOMA event for January, 2020.
Queechy students have been invited to make work to add to this exhibition, so the last couple of weeks we have been busy making bees and monsters from found and repurposed materials.
