U3A Lower North

U3A artists are regular supporters of the RFDS Spring Art and Garden Fairs at the Lakeside Railway, Melrose Park. Members paint en plein air, setting up their easels in the open, subject to the scrutiny and commentary of all comers.

2022: At The Art House, 8 Mill Street Clare from 2 to 28 March.

Visitors are welcome to view the exhibition between 10.30 a.m. and 3 p.m. on any day except Tuesdays,

The Auburn and Burra groups have combined to deliver a diversity of subjects and styles including acrylic, pastel, watercolour and pen.

The Auburn Art Group meet weekly for 4 hours on Wednesdays at the kiosk, Recreation Grounds, Auburn. 

The Burra Art Group meet monthly on the second Tuesday from 9.30 am to 2.30 pm at the Burra Showgrounds, February to November.

Many members belong to both groups.

Group leader for both groups is Ann Foster.

The U3A Quilting Group members held an exhibition of their work in St Barnabas’ Church a few years ago. The quilts made a dramatic display draped over the backs of the pews. All proceeds went to church charities but putting our organisation in front of the public in such a positive manner was invaluable promotion for U3A.
