WORKS in many media will be on show from Friday in Strathnairn’s annual members’ exhibition, which will showcase the talent and creativity of the arts community out at glorious Strathnairn Homestead on the edge of Holt.
A belated official opening will be performed by Peter Haynes, UC art collection curator, on Saturday December 8, at 11.30am, when Strathnairn’s deliciously effective fundraiser, “Soup and Bowl,” will run from 12 to 2.30pm.
