SUMMARY:Wonders of HINTON
DESCRIPTION:Experience one of the greatest collections of art in regional Australia with the new semi-permanent display\, Wonders of Hinton. \nThe Howard Hinton Collection is the result of one of the greatest acts of artistic philanthropy and benefaction in Australian history. Between 1929 and 1948 a collection of over 1000 artworks were donated to the newly constructed Armidale Teachers’ College by the retired shipping agent\, Howard Hinton OBE (1866-1948). The collection provides a snapshot into Australian artistic practice in the early twentieth century as well as some insights into this ‘modest and self-effacing’ gentleman who lived in a boarding house in the north shore suburb of Cremorne and is one of the most significant collections of Australian art in regional New South Wales. \nOpening Night Event: Friday 3 February\, 6pm \n

SUMMARY:Halfway Home: Bridie McKelvey
DESCRIPTION:A solo exhibition of delightful and whimsical assemblages and dioramas representing a small escape from life’s hectic and sometimes harsh realities. Bridie McKelvey’s work takes seemingly mundane objects transforming them into intricate reimagined landscapes. Favoured materials include paper\, tins\, toys\, beads\, threads\, old books\, paper\, found objects\, wire and pressed flowers\, that are applied with repetition throughout her work – continually toying with colour\, balance and texture\, and delivering on an objective that is purely decorative and designed to delight. \n  \nNow based in the Northern Rivers\, Bridie McKelvey grew up and attended high school in Armidale. McKelvey has studied visual arts and graphic design and has participated in several group exhibitions in NSW. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nCredit: Bridie McKelvey\, Owl and flowers\, n.d.\, mixed media assemblage.
