Apollo Bay Arts Inc
Apollo Bay Art Show Success!
Changing the date to Easter for the first time ever, due to COVID, and taking the Show online, proved to be a good move. The Show ran for 9 days from 2 – 10 April and attracted 805 visitors in person and countless others online.
Big thanks to Colac Otway Shire & the Apollo Bay Bendigo Bank whose grants enabled the creation of the website and the online Show.
Thank you to all the volunteers who make the Show possible; from setting up, putting out signs, sitting the Show to packing it up. Thanks to the School for the beautiful works from their art program that were exhibited in the foyer.
79 established & emerging artists exhibited a total of 244 artworks, of which 88 pieces sold! Thank you to the artists without whom there is no Show!
Profits made from the 2021 Art Show will be redistributed to the Apollo Bay community for Arts projects and reinvested into Art Show for infrastructure improvements.
