Join me to celebrate the 39th Anniversary of the Immanuel Arts Festival. This year I am thrilled to be an Artist in Residence along with the talents of fellow Artists, Rachael Curry and Owen Hutchison. The Immanuel Arts Festival exhibits and sells paintings, sculpture, photography, drawings, prints and quality crafts by local artists and students. This event has grown from a small gathering with a limited number of pieces to today’s festival which attracts over 200 emerging and established artists and 800 artworks across a number of different genres including painting, photography, sculpture, mixed media, wearable art, film and creative. The festival proudly promotes visual, creative and performance art within the Sunshine Coast community and in 2019 will be held from 23 to 26 May at Immanuel Lutheran College.
