Three Women from the Bush – Friends, Artists, Activists
Visit Wauchope Gallery from November 16th until December 10th to view this great exhibition.
Recent works by Hastings artists Jacky Beckhurst, Jo Davidson and Colleen Werner will be on display including drawings, paintings, prints and textiles.
All artists are long term residents of the Upper Hastings, these three friends, artists and activists have been inspired by our beautiful country and each other for the last 35 years, be it through the Bagnoo print making workshop run by artist Tarpie Watts, exhibitions at the Glasshouse in Port Macquarie and Blue Poles Byabarra, workshops for Wauchope Arts and Aquasculpture or years of teaching art at TAFE.
Jacky Beckhurst, Jo Davidson and Colleen Werner have witnessed and endured first hand the ravages of drought, fire, floods and the pandemic, as neighbours whole heartedly committed to the preservation and protection of our Land. Their art speaks of this dedication and love of Country, and a clear choice to live amongst and experience the natural world.
Please join the artists at the official opening on Sat 19th November from 11am-1.00pm with Councillor Lisa Intemann officially opening the exhibition at 11am.
Visit the Gallery on 19th of November, 26th of November, 3rd of December and 10th of December to meet the artists!
