  The regional tour of the exhibition Artistic Endeavour: Contemporary artists’ response to the legacy of Banks, Solander and Parkinson is well underway with our artworks moving around the country in secure, purpose-built crates.

  All aspects of the touring program are overseen by Prue McComish, our tour manager at Museums & Galleries Queensland (M&G QLD). The Botanical Artists’ Society of Queensland is fortunate to have the support and mentoring of this peak exhibitions touring agency, from the exhibition’s early planning stages up to the delivery of this major tour. Significantly, they have guided our successful grant applications for the initial funding from Arts Queensland to develop the exhibition at Redcliffe Museum in 2020, to the highly competitive Visions of Australia funding for the tour.

  One of the notable features of the touring program is that, at each venue, the staff need to adapt the exhibition to their gallery spaces. The curators, Beth Jackson and Dr Nita C Lester, worked with M&G QLD staff to develop the tour manual, that outlines the eight exhibition themes to guide the placement of artworks and didactic materials. 

  At each venue, the grant funding covers the costs for a curator tour and workshop. A number of the exhibiting artists put forward a selection of workshop topics from which venues choose. The exhibition and events have met with much interest in the communities to which it has travelled.

  For The Love of Plants Exhibition October 2020 - POSTPONED
  

  This exhibition was planned for October 2020 at the Bowral and District Art Society (BDAS) Gallery.  Unfortunately, due to the ongoing situation with the COVID-19 pandemic, it has now been postponed.  We hope 2021 will be a more settled year and a new date for the exhibition will be confirmed in due course.

  Any enquiries should be directed to BDAS Botanic Artists:

  Email bdasbotanicartists17@gmail.com

  The exhibition is being organised by the Bowral and District Art Society (BDAS) Botanical Artists, an untutored group who regularly meet and work together in the BDAS studios.
  The exhibition covers a wide range of approaches to botanical art.
  The last year has shown, particularly to those of us living in the Southern Highlands and surrounding fire affected areas, that nature and plants are both fragile and incredibly resilient.
  We hope that this exhibition, at this difficult time, will highlight the true value of plants.
  Precious, beautiful and extraordinary.
  Artists are invited to submit works for the exhibition.
  All enquiries should be directed to BDAS Botanic Artists:
