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:Faces from the Hinton Collection
DESCRIPTION:Open Air Gallery Exhibition \nThe Howard Hinton Collection is one of the most significant collections of Australian art held outside a capital city\, formed through the extraordinary generosity of patron Howard Hinton. Between 1928 and 1948\, Hinton donated over 1\,000 artworks to the Armidale Teachers’ College with a clear vision: to create a collection that would illustrate the development of Australian art and make it accessible for education and public enjoyment. \nWithin this broader ambition\, portraiture plays a vital role. Alongside landscapes and still life\, portraits offer a different kind of record\, not of place\, but of people. They capture likeness\, character\, status and identity\, while also revealing the sensibilities of the artist and the cultural values of their time. In the Hinton Collection\, portraiture reflects a formative period in Australian art\, when artists were negotiating both inherited European traditions and an emerging national identity. \nThe ten works brought together in Faces from the Hinton Collection highlight the diversity of approaches to portraiture across this period. Some works emphasise physical resemblance and careful observation; others move toward mood\, atmosphere or psychological presence. Together\, they demonstrate how portraiture is not simply about depicting a sitter\, but about constructing meaning — a relationship between artist\, subject and viewer. \nAs you move through the exhibition\, these faces invite close looking. They ask us to consider not only who is represented\, but how and why. In doing so\, they continue Hinton’s original intention: to use art as a means of education\, reflection and connection across generations. \n  \nThe Armidale Open Air Gallery is a public art initiative presented by Armidale Regional Council in collaboration with New England Regional Art Museum. Designed to enrich the cultural landscape of the region\, this outdoor exhibition showcases a curated selectin of artworks in public spaces\, offering residents and visitors accessible and engaging visual arts experience. Artworks featured in the gallery will rotate on a six-monthly basis\, ensuring a continually refreshed display that reflects the diversity and creativity of local and regional artists. The initiative not only celebrates artistic excellence but also fosters community connection through the integration of art into everyday environments. \n

SUMMARY:What are YOU Looking At?
DESCRIPTION:What Are YOU Looking At? invites us to look closely and to consider what it means to be seen. Drawing from NERAM’s collections\, this exhibition brings together portraits spanning different eras\, styles and approaches to the representation of people. \nFrom intimate self-portraits to bold and unexpected interpretations\, these works reveal how artists use portraiture to explore identity\, character\, relationships and the act of looking itself. Who are we looking at? What can a portrait reveal\, and what might it conceal? \n\nOpening Night: Friday 2nd October\, 2026. From 6pm-8pm. Free entry. RVSP here. \nWhat Are YOU Looking At? will exhibit at NERAM from Fri 2 October 2026 – Sun 7 February 2027. \n\nImage: Tim Lewis\, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner\, 1974. oil on canvas.

SUMMARY:Fractured Sanctuary: Ken O'Regan
DESCRIPTION:Fractured Sanctuary is a luminous meditation on beauty\, waste and the sacred. Ken O’Regan transforms hundreds of discarded plastic objects into a glowing\, kaleidoscopic composition inspired by the rose windows of medieval cathedrals\, Victorian leadlight and the neon signs of contemporary commerce. Seductive and unsettling in equal measure\, the work elevates the everyday while confronting the environmental cost of our culture of consumption. \n\nAbout the artist\nFor over twenty years artist Ken O’Regan has developed sculptural practices that combine found object assemblage with environmental themes. His practice has involved producing large installations that visually echo museums\, stained glass windows\, mandalas and neon signage. His work frequently uses light to make these references\, and this has extended his practice into the area of sculptural lantern making. \nO’Regan’s work is well known in the Hunter Region of NSW through regular and critically successful exhibitions\, community art projects\, public artworks and education projects. He has created many successful workshops for children that combine art education with waste reduction and recycling message. His artworks are represented in the collections of Newcastle Region Art Gallery\, Wallsend District Library\, The University of Newcastle and in many private collections. \n\nOpening Night: Fri 2nd October from 6pm-8pm. Free entry. RSVP here. \nFractured Sanctuary will exhibit at NERAM from Fri 2nd October – Sun 8th November.  \n\nImage: Ken O’Regan\, Fractured Sanctuary (NERAM Configuration)\, 2026. 2400 x 3450mm. 20 panels.

SUMMARY:Term 4 2026 | Wednesday Art Class with Kerry Gulliver

If you are new to art\, Kerry can help you get started on the basics\, such as looking at line\, colour\, perspective. \nYou are welcome to join the class no matter what your skill levels are. If you are unsure of the how to begin\, just turn up on the first day and Kerry will help determine the best approach for you. \nThe class is quite casual\, with many of the ongoing students working on their own projects\, taking guidance as needed. \nKerry Gulliver is a skilled artist and educator who has exhibited regularly in Armidale\, Sydney\, and Tamworth. She has trained in visual arts\, animation\, colour theory\, and graphic design; she works regularly with community and other groups to run a range of art courses. \nDates | Wednesday 14 October – Wednesday 16 December  (10 weeks)\nTime | 10:00am – 3:00pm\nVenue | Packsaddle Studio (located at the rear of NERAM )\nCost |  Friends of NERAM/Culture Club Members – $369\, General – $406\nMaterials | BYO – please see below for a list of recommended supplies \nMin 10/Max 18 \n  \n \n\n  \nFor more information please email foh@neram.com.au \nImage courtesy of Kerry Gulliver. \n\nMaterials required for class:\n\nBring any reference material that inspires you\, whether photographic\, or of other artwork.
