You may never know what artistic talent you have lurking inside you until you give it a try.
Many people join one of the many Art Classes at U3A and are amazed at what they can learn and create so quickly.
With more than 150 different classes each week, there are more than 20 different art classes that encourage discovery of your creativity in all sorts of media.
People get together for a couple of hours each week to help each other explore their artistic potential, and are amazed at what they can produce.
Tutors provide guidance in Acrylic Painting, Pencil Drawing, Folk Art, Silk Painting and Watercolour, and how to explore new dimensions of Composition and creativity in Workshops.
It’s all about having lots of creative fun with like-minded people.
Some are Masters and others are Apprentices.
For some it is their first attempt at creative Art as an adult. One new student was heard to remark “Because I had not done Art before I didn’t think had any talent, but now I have the confidence to release my creative spirit”.
U3A display talent at Community Arts Centre.
The amazing diversity of works by the U3A Masters and their Apprentices will be on display for Bribie residents and visitors from January 21 to February 10th at the Community Arts Centre.
