WELCOME to "A Brush with Art"
The Flinders Ranges comes alive with a kaleidoscope of colour!
Saturday 11 September to Monday 4 October 2010 (inclusive)
With their geological significance, timelessness and stunning rugged beauty, the Flinders Ranges have long been a favorite destination.
Artists have traveled to the area from other parts of Australia and overseas to draw inspiration for their work, many of them choosing to stay. Flinders communities have recognised the contribution of art to their local economies and have increasingly supported artists with exhibition opportunities.
In 2004, a number of the exhibition organizers came together with a view to establishing an 'Art Trail' in the region and in 2005 it grew into a Spring Arts Festival called 'Flinders Ranges – A Brush with Art'.
Now in its sixth year, the Festival has grown enormously, attracted new venues and become established as an exciting event eagerly anticipated by contributing arts practitioners as well as enthusiasts and collectors.
Spring brings together a rich kaleidoscope of colour in the Flinders Ranges in nature, on canvas and in a variety of inspired forms to be experienced by our communities and visitors alike.
