Kangaroo Ground by Amanda Hyatt
With a production as important as the Rotary Eltham Art Show, precise planning is imperative. The committee is looking from every angle to continuously improve the experience and outcome for the artists and the community.
Do you have any ideas ? Let us know…
Artists, sculptors and creative geniuses are asked to commence their works now, if you haven’t started already. Only your finest works will be selected for entry. The Prizes are generous.
En Plein Air Challenge
Due to popular demand, we plan to reconvene the En Plein Air challenge in the lead up to the show. This was immensely popular for the 2023 show.
There were more than 20 artists spread across many of the beautiful historical sites within the immediate area. There’s nothing more exciting than watching an accomplished artist produce a masterpiece right in front of your eyes.
Education
Four local schools are interested in their VCE Year 11 Art students participating in a tutorial by a leading exhibiting artist as part of their educational curriculum. How exciting would it be, seeing some of our local students following in the footsteps of our heritage artists.

Redecorating?
New items can replace older ones. Providing that fresh and revived seasonal enthusiasm. Whether it be in the house, the garden, a gift or just a whim of “I had to have it !” Hundreds of superb creations to choose from.
Volunteering
Another important opportunity is also available in the form of ‘volunteering’. It’s your opportunity to get amongst the action, to be a part of the Artists and Eltham community. There’s nothing more rewarding than giving, seeing the smile of appreciation and the reward of satisfaction in contributing to a project which will be beneficial to so many causes. Projects include assisting with hanging and arranging art pieces, welcoming guests and directing them to required interests, maybe a spot of catering help, most defiantly fun!!
