David and Jenny are well known to and have dealings with Murwillumbah’s Ray White Office and in the spirit of generosity, purchased Jocelyn’s painting with the intention it be presented to the Ray White Office.

Jocelyn has, with great pride, presented her art piece ‘Dare to Sting’ to the Ray White staff who were suitable impressed and thrilled with their acquisition.  The empty walls of the Ray White conference room are now adorned with a unique piece of art for all to appreciate.

It is worthy to note that the Murwillumbah Art Hub was previously the Ray White Offices, now unrecognisable as it once was, alive with colour, life, unique art and recycled installations.

Over the space of four days, the Murwillumbah Art Hub had over 800 visitors through the doors and they sold over $1,800 worth of art works! The ‘Uninhibited’ exhibition was so popular that they had to extend the opening hours over the weekend in order to keep up with demand!

As always, the public totally embraced our artists’ work with many return customers from last years event. The Art Hub’s reputation for unique and joyous art had obviously spread throughout the community and the MAT19 event as the number of visitors to the gallery was up on last year…even though the event was held over fewer days. Every single one of the delighted visitors to the gallery was blown away by our artists. Many of them commenting that they thought the ‘Uninhibited’ exhibition was the best of MAT19 and that they’d heard people talking about us in other galleries and spreading the word around the event as a must see exhibition.

An internationally recognised artist was enthralled enough to buy one of our artworks and three of our artists received commissions.

As you can imagine, both artists and art staff worked tirelessly in front of house and behind the scenes towards this fabulous event. By the end of the weekend they were absolutely thrilled, suitably exhausted and proud as punch of our artists.

The popularity of our exhibition has continued since the event as word of mouth spreads. People have continued to pop into the gallery on a regular basis and this has resulted in yet more sales, which provides invaluable and priceless PR for our Visual Arts Program that is accompanied by every satisfied customer.

The Visual Arts Group are proud to be involved in this community event and invite you to experience ‘Uninhibited’, a group exhibition from the artists of Lifebridge Australia.

In the development and pursuit of individual potential, the artists of Lifebridge explore many avenues of self-expression creating their own unique visual language, leading to pathways of self-discovery, awareness and personal growth. Working primarily from emotional intelligence, our artists create a myriad of images, each with the ability to console, comfort, challenge, intrigue and delight us.

The Visual Arts Group are also proudly proactive in the reduction of waste and have a vast array of unique and quirky recycled and upcycled art installations displayed in the outdoor lane gallery.

“We are thrilled to be involved in MAT19 and look forward to another popular and successful
exhibition highlighting our artists achievements.” said Art Tutor, Kathryn Cleland.
