The display includes everything from contemporary abstracts and classic landscapes to intricate portraits and still life paintings, providing something intriguing for every art lover.
A special highlight of this event is the "Vote for Your Favourite Painting" feature. Visitors are encouraged to participate by voting for the piece that resonates most with them. This interactive component not only engages the audience but also gives the artists valuable feedback about the impact of their work. The winning artist, as determined by public vote, will receive special recognition at the end of the exhibition, celebrating their contribution to the local art scene.
In addition to enjoying the artwork, attendees will have the opportunity to contribute to a charitable cause. The exhibition includes a raffle, with the prize being a painting donated by one of the featured artists. All proceeds from the raffle will go to a local charity, supporting community initiatives and helping those in need. Raffle tickets can be purchased throughout the event, and the winner will be announced on the final day of the exhibition.
