Celebrating Creativity:
Spotlight on Russell High
- Schreiner Gallery
- Opens Thursday 19 April at 18h00
- Closes Sunday 17 June at 17h00
Russell High has produced artworks that focus on recycling and environmental issues as part of their annual Matric Art Exhibition. Some of these creations have won the school prizes in both local and national art competitions. It is in this light that as a pilot project, the Gallery has awarded Russell High an opportunity to exhibit in the Schreiner Gallery as resident artists while working on current projects. This exhibition will run concurrently with the Midlands Matric Art Exhibition.
Artists in Residence Programme
- Tuesday 24, Wednesday 25 and Thursday 26 April from 10h00 - 14h00
