The Exhibition will showcase two-dimensional artworks, such as drawings, paintings, photography, screen prints, and sculptural objects like ceramics, glass or mixed media designs.
CEO of Latrobe City Council, Steven Piasente is encouraging people to head along to the Exhibition and check out some of the incredible art on display at Latrobe Regional Gallery. "The Art for All Exhibition is a great opportunity for us all to celebrate those with a disability and give them a chance to showcase their artwork, which they may not otherwise be able to do. Council recognises the importance of celebrating art and culture as it enriches lives and communities and encourages social inclusion."
An Auslan Interpreter will be present at the Exhibition opening and Soundscape Ensemble. To learn more or book in for the Soundscape Ensemble, visit the Latrobe Regional Gallery website or call Council on 1300 367 700.
