A mixed media art exhibition, including portraiture, rendering, patterns and design, plus the elements and principles of art and various techniques, will feature at a special premiere event tomorrow night at Craigieburn gallery.
Creating & Making is a showcase of works by Craigieburn Secondary College students from years 7-12. Hume mayor Geoff Porter said the exhibition revealed “the breadth of local emerging talent”.
The school’s art co-ordinator, Fiona Cerni, could only agree.
“Art in education allows students to exercise and develop higher-order thinking skills and gives them confidence and a sense of achievement,” she said.
The exhibition opens tomorrow at 5.30pm and will run until November 10. RSVP gallery@hume.vic.gov.au.
