AUSTRALIAN National Capital Artists studios and gallery in Dickson will be the setting tomorrow for a rare bipartisanship of strength in the arts when two former ACT arts ministers, Bill Wood and Gary Humphries, join to help celebrate the 21st birthday party for ANCA’s Dickson “campus.”
“Campus” is a bipartisan initiative that saw decent working spaces built for Canberra artists. A sister facility for sculptors and heavy-duty artists was also established in Mitchell under the same process.
Exhibiting artists in “ANCA NOW!” are Keiko Amenomori-Schmeisser, Jacqueline Bradley, Liz Coats, Hamilton Darroch, Sara Freemen, Nicci Haynes, Denise Higgins, Philippa Hofgartner, Hanna Hoyne, Megan Jackson, Sui Jackson, Kerry Johns, Mary Kayser, David Kim, Blaide Lallemand, Cathy Laudenbach, Dan Lorrimer, Clare Martin, Carmel McCrow, Brendan Murphy, Heike Qualitz, Trish Roan, Annika Romeyn, Eve Sawa, Gary Smith, AG Stokes and Dan Vukovljak.
“ANCA NOW!” at ANCA Gallery, 1 Rosevear Place Dickson, from 6pm tomorrow, March 27 to April 21, 12-5pm Wednesday-Sunday. Curator and artists’ “In Conversation”, 3pm, Saturday, April 13. All welcome. (The gallery will be closed Good Friday & Easter Sunday)
