Marion Art Group members have been keen to get back to our wonderful new venue at the Marino Community Hall after the Christmas and New Year break.

We have now enjoyed three Monday Studio Sessions during January and have already welcomed several new members this year.

Our numbers are at the maximum we can accept for the time being. Further interested artists will need to go on a waiting list.

Much chit chat and new ideas for artwork shared.

New and experienced members pause for the camera.

Now we turn our attention to our move to the newly built Marino Community Hall in a few weeks time. Our last Session at the Seacliff United Church Hall will take place on Monday 2nd June. They have been wonderful hosts to our group for well over two years. A great deal of planning and work has taken place lately to try to make a smooth transition of our art group into the stunning new facility.

THE OFFICIAL OPEN DAY OF THE MARINO COMMUNITY HALL, IS ON SATURDAY 28TH JUNE.

.

We have made a strong start to the year with a number of new members applying for membership.

Our first Exhibition of the year is at the Bayside Village Shopping Centre, Glenelg.

The Exhibition will be from Monday 28 to Saturday 10th May. More details to follow soon.

Much planning and organisation goes into each of our Shopping Centre Exhibitions. Below shows our entry-form submission, ‘procession’. It was a busy day for the Marion Art Group.

The members of MAG are back to start a new year and it has certainly been a ‘hot start.’…. with a program of activities published very early and some challenging weather to deal with.

We look forward to an interesting year which includes our first 10 screen exhibition for many years at Bayside Village SC, Glenelg. Starting at the end of April. ( more details to follow)

Our move back into the newly built Marino Community Hall is now fast approaching. As the final stages of the build, ‘fit out’ and finishing off are completed, we are starting to plan our transition back into our home of over 30 years.

2nd December is our wind-up for the year. This includes our annual AGM, Christmas Celebrations and Display of artwork on the theme of ‘Limited Pallett’

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.

We start again at the Seacliff Uniting Church Hall on Monday 13th January.
