Gallery Sunshine Everywhere has five strands
Strand one: SCHOOLS
Gallery Sunshine Everywhere coordinates at least five curated exhibitions each year in Sunshine in Melbourne’s west.
There are no costs to families or schools for Strand One. Grants and Sponsorship are always welcome to support each of the exhibitions.
Gallery Sunshine Everywhere liaises with all schools that register for each exhibition and selects work for exhibition and for the on line Art Gallery on this web site:
-
1. All work is photographed and added to the on line Art Gallery on this site.
-
2. The work selected for exhibition is framed or otherwise prepared for exhibition
-
3. Each exhibition period of three or four weeks commences with an official opening
-
4. An identifying card listing the artist’s first name, year level and school is displayed with each art work
-
5. Where enquiries are made about purchasing (framed or unframed) any work on display, Gallery Sunshine Everywhere follows up with schools, families and potential buyers.
