Bald Archy at Grenfell
8 August - 27 August 2011
The Bald Archy is Australia's most popular comic portrait exhibition ‐ a spoof of the Archibald Prize and the only art competition in the world to be judged by a sulphur‐crested cockatoo named Maude.
It provides artists of all styles and standards with a genuine opportunity,
ranging from the hilarious to the bizarrely vulgar, to create portrait paintings of humour, dark satire, light comedy or caricature.
Although created as something of a joke, the Bald Archy Prize has become an icon on the Australian art calendar (albeit an eccentric one),
particularly because of the absurdist nature of the event, calling for irreverent comic and satirical images of well‐known Australians. The Bald Archy will be exhibited this August following a successful application by Grenfell Regional Gallery to have the exhibition tour through Grenfell.
Entry to the exhibition is $5. For more information call (02) 6343 1313 or(02) 6347 8147.

The New Arcadia at Lismore Regional Gallery
Until 3 September 2011

The exhibition curator, Kezia Geddes, has sourced the works in this exhibition from public and private galleries across Australia and has got together a truly exciting group of artists who bring their differing responses to notions of arcadia and the picturesque. The exhibition features work from Danie Mellor, Grant Stevens and Jan Davis among others. "The New Arcadia" will be at Lismore Regional Gallery until 3 September 2011. For more information, call (02) 6622 2209 or visit www.lismoregallery.org.

Rural Aboriginal Artists to Exhibit at Gosford Regional Gallery
5 - 15 August 2011
Artwork by Aboriginal artists from around the western NSW shire of Walgett will soon be on display at Gosford Regional Gallery in The Studio Gallery, from 5th to the 15th August 2011. The artwork will feature both contemporary and traditional art styles of artists primarily from the indigenous tribes of the Gamilaroi and Yuwaalaraay people but also featuring styles of neighbouring tribes. Although the exhibition was originally planned to feature the work of artist Frank Wright exclusively, he felt that the involvement of the other Aboriginal artists in the area would help promote local talent and encourage self confidence within the artists in the group. The opening night, starting at 6pm, will also showcase the Ganang Spirit Dancers, who are aged between 3 and 12 yrs and who will dance in traditional aboriginal style as part of the opening ceremony.

Project Reports
Marramarra: Make, Create, Do
The Aboriginal arts showcase Marramarra: Make, Create, Do attracted around 500 people to Bathurst Memorial Entertainment Centre on Tuesday July 12.
The Arts OutWest project brought together Aboriginal artists and communities from across the Central West of NSW. The exhibition and performance elements were blended together in a theatrical experience for the audience through poetry, dance, music, film and an exhibition.
The exhibition included paintings, print making, textiles, works in encaustic wax, traditional Wiradjuri basket weaving, ceramics and wood carvings. Artistic Directors, Desert Pea Media, also filmed interviews with Aboriginal Elders and artists across the region that were shown as part of the performance. Those interviewed reflected on culture, on being an artist and on how to best help their communities grow and strengthen. The filmed snapshots painted a picture of the unique Central West NSW Aboriginal cultural identity.
The event was officially opened by Wiradjuri woman and well known Australian author Dr Anita Heiss.
From March to June workshops were held in Bathurst, Condobolin, Cowra, Dubbo, Lake Cargelligo, Parkes, Orange and Wellington in contemporary aboriginal dance, film and hip hop music making and professional development for visual artists. Around 150 people of all ages took part in these workshops with many of these involved in the Marramarra event in Bathurst. The project was supported by the NSW Government through Arts NSW and by the Australian Government through the Department of Family and Community Services and Indigenous Affairs with support also from the NSW Department of Transport and Bathurst Regional Council. The Central West Aboriginal Arts Development Program is supported by the Australian Government through the NACIS (National Arts and Crafts Industry Support) and ICS (Indigenous Cultural Support) programs.

The Waverley Council Artist-in-Residence Program is based at the Bondi-Waverley School of
Arts Building on Bondi Road, Bondi. It provides artists with three rent-free, non-residential unfurnished
studios for six-month terms for artists to work in.
The aim of the Artist-in-Residence Program is to increase the community’s participation in
the arts and to foster collaboration developing the creative industries. During the residency,
artists are provided with professional development opportunities to work with Waverley
Council community and cultural services.
High commercial rents are a barrier to retaining artists in the Waverley area. In lieu of rent, the lease is “paid” in-kind by resident artists with the delivery of an arts project
involving members of the community. The resident artists are also expected to grant studio
access to visitors. Artist-led projects need to involve the active participation of Waverley
residents. For more information visit www.waverley.nsw.gov.au/things_to_do/arts_and_culture

Bald Archy at Grenfell
8 August - 27 August 2011
The Bald Archy is Australia's most popular comic portrait exhibition ‐ a spoof of the Archibald Prize and the only art competition in the world to be judged by a sulphur‐crested cockatoo named Maude.
It provides artists of all styles and standards with a genuine opportunity,
ranging from the hilarious to the bizarrely vulgar, to create portrait paintings of humour, dark satire, light comedy or caricature.
Although created as something of a joke, the Bald Archy Prize has become an icon on the Australian art calendar (albeit an eccentric one),
particularly because of the absurdist nature of the event, calling for irreverent comic and satirical images of well‐known Australians. The Bald Archy will be exhibited this August following a successful application by Grenfell Regional Gallery to have the exhibition tour through Grenfell.
Entry to the exhibition is $5. For more information call (02) 6343 1313 or(02) 6347 8147.

Animals in Art
6 August - Mid September 2011
Approximately 60 visual art students from Lithgow High School are exhibiting their printmaking and ceramic work at Potters Needs Gallery in Oberon.
The students are from years seven to nine and were given the theme “Animals in Art”. Once the subject was decided upon (either a bird,
insect, animal or fish) the image was drawn and transferred onto a piece of lino for carving. Most students produced an edition of ten lino
prints, then using white or terracotta clay made embossed print ceramic plates which were then decorated in underglaze colours, glazed
in a lead free clear glaze and then fired in a pottery kiln to 1100 degrees Celsius.
Opening hours are Saturday and Sunday 10am to 4pm with other times by appointment. For more information, call (02) 6336 0411.

The Bathurst Theatre Company has created an opportunity for
aspiring local comedians, as well as a great night of entertainment for the people of the Central West.
They are asking locals to get up and try their hand at stand up comedy with comedian Steady Eddy.
The Bathurst Theatre Company has a tradition of encouraging members to try their
hand at any form of theatre that appeals to them, and comedy is something a lot of people would like to try.
They are asking each person to perform for three to five minutes, and once the troupe of Local Jokers is complete there will be regular get togethers where they can try out new material on each other, learn new skills and have some fun.
The Theatre Company will also need assistance with staging the event, and are also looking for helpers to that end. If you would like to find out more about the event (no obligation to perform), ring Tandi Pickard from the Bathurst Theatre Company on (02) 6331 0738 or 0403 068 461.
