Much-loved celebration of creativity from Mt Glorious and Mt Nebo – Art with Altitude – will return to Mount Glorious Community Hall for two days next month.
The event, on November 15 and 16, will showcase work from more than 25 artists from across the region.
It will feature original artwork including paintings, photographs, sculptures, ceramics, fibre art, glasswork, line drawing and more. All pieces will be available for purchase at a variety of price points, perfect for all art lovers and collectors.
More than an exhibition, Art with Altitude is a festival of art and community.
Alongside the artworks, visitors can explore a lively market, enjoy delicious food and barista coffee, take in live music, and watch art and craft demonstrations.
There will also be a children’s playground and the chance to win raffle including three chances to win a weekend getaway at Mt Glorious.
Since its debut in 2015, Art with Altitude has grown into a vibrant highlight on the Mount Glorious, Nebo and Samford calendar, drawing art lovers and visitors from Brisbane and beyond.
“Mount Glorious and Mount Nebo are home to a surprisingly large number of highly talented artists, working in a wide variety of media,” explains convenor Rose Cuthbertson.
“Many of these artists have no other outlet for their work, and Art with Altitude gives them an opportunity to exhibit to a wide audience. It is also a wonderful community event.
“Over 60 volunteers (nearly one third of our community) contribute to the event in some way, and most are involved over the weekend of the exhibition, creating friendship and contacts within our community.
“It is very satisfying and enjoyable to be part of such an inclusive and sociable event.”
A donation on entry supports the event and also puts visitors in the running for a lucky door prize of artwork by one of Mt Glorious’ artists.
The event is supported by Community Bank Samford and City of Moreton Bay.
