About this event

Event lasts 2 hours

Our end of year celebration Faces and Places will span across three days of art, music, food and artisan markets, all hosted at Art From The Margins Gallery. Festivities will kick off with the official opening of our end of year exhibition on 30 November.

About the exhibition

Much of our lives are shaped by the faces and places we encounter—some we see daily, others just once.

Some faces and places will impact us so much, we are inspired to capture them as artwork. That may be why portraits and landscapes are the most common artworks we come across.

Wesley Arts’ 2024 end of year exhibition invites you to share in the faces and places that inspire our Wesley Arts workshop participants and community members.
