EXHIBITIONS
Till 24 August STUDIOS, SHEDS AND KITCHEN TABLES: Local Artisans in their Work Spaces @ the Centre, Beaudesert. Free entry. Series of portrait photographs by Chelsi Foskett. Foskett takes us into creative spaces rarely seen by the public. Artisans, by their nature are creative but so too are their work spaces. The spaces themselves can be very inventive due to the needs of the artist as so clearly depicted in these fascinating images.
plus VIA TIME @ the Centre, Beaudesert. Free entry. Survey show of sculptures and paintings by Kate French. This variable collection of paintings encompasses examples from several bodies of work dated 2006 to 2010 by Kate French. Although the style evolves with each season, the essence remains intact: human experience in our landscapes and built environments, and our collective desire to record and affect it in a myriad of sensorial ways.

Till 22 August CANVASSING BOONAH @ Boonah Regional Gallery. Works by Jill Vanstone incorporating traditional realistic scenes from the district. Beside each work there will be a large extension from that scene, and with each subject there will be a statement about the process.
