EASTER ART & CRAFT SHOW 2016 RESULTS

About 2000 people visited the show, bought 61 pieces of art, and were impressed by the quality and range of work on display. It was particularly pleasing to see many entries from Trentham and Bullarto primary schools. Peoples’ Choice (Art) went to Vanessa Gellibrand for her portrait of “Bear” a local Trentham character. Peoples’ Choice (Craft) was won by Jane Bloom for her stunning, mediaeval-inspired flower quilt.
