Artists at Work in the Te Awamutu Library!
Waipa District Libraries are showcasing some of our best local artists including Te Kowhai's very own Susannah Salter!
From March 13 to 16, the Te Awamutu Library will play host to a number of morning and afternoon sessions where local artists, of various mediums, work on a current project in the Community Room at the Te Awamutu Library.
Visitors are invited to come along and observe the fascinating process of an artwork being created. The public can stay for as long as they like. They may want to pull up a chair and chat with the artists or just pop in.
There will be up to four artists sharing the space at a time, so there will be a great variety on show including painters, digital artists, clay artists and more!
Also on offer during March, are a series of introductory art classes for adults held on Saturday mornings. Attendees can learn the basics about watercolour, Māori art, clay and drawing with charcoal. The classes are a gold coin donation to attend and registration is essential.
For more details about the programme or classes and pick up a brochure from either the Te Awamutu or Cambridge Library, visit the Waipa District Libraries Facebook page or go to the News and Events page at waipalibraries.org.nz
