A Big Weekend Celebrating Art

This weekend is a weekend of fab achievements for Fine Art students at Nepean Arts and Design Centre.

Friday night is the first event for the 'no boundaries ' project, the exciting free public art and multimedia event that has involved so many of our students. Come along to 'The Mondo', between the Joan and Westfield at Penrith to see the fabulous work our students have been involved with. You can find all the details on the 'no boundaries' website. 
There are more performances on Saturday night too.

Don't forget the opening of 'Framed' at the Penrith Regional Gallery & The Lewers Bequest this Saturday from 5pm. 'Framed' is the end result of a professional practice and site-specific art project undertaken by our Advanced Diploma of Visual Arts students at the Gallery. More than twenty large scale photographs will fill Lewers House, the result of a project that gives our students professional exhibition experience, and the opportunity to work with a site specific brief. This year the students were also given the extended responsibility of curating 'The Pick', the changing exhibition drawn form the Gallery's permanent collection.
