BRAG Art Gallery Markets this Sunday

Have you heard about the BRAG (Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery) Sunday Art Markets happening on the 17th October, that would be this Sunday coming?

It's part of the Crush festival which is a month long celebration of all things arty held every October here in Bundaberg. The local paper has been publishing a list of whats on but you can also pick up brochures from the council. A few friends and I have been discussing this lately and we believe that you have to support local initiatives like these. If we want to have interesting and creative events to attend then you go along with a good attitude and support them otherwise they will disappear.

Anyway back to the Sunday Art Market. This is an annual Art Market that the gallery hosts and the last time I heard they have approx 50 stalls of local artists and crafts people showing (and selling) their wares of which I will be one. It's held in the Art Gallery itself on both levels and also in the park next door where they will have food & drinks available as well. Lots of interesting arty crafty things to look at and purchase (don't forget we're getting closer to Christmas - buy now and miss the last minute stress of searching for gifts) and it will be open from 10am until 3pm. I'll be in the downstairs gallery if you're looking for me.

Don't know where the Bundaberg Regional Art Gallery is? It's very easy to find and the parking will be good considering its a Sunday. On the corner of Quay & Barolin Sts - as a landmark it's just down from the town Post Office (go towards the river).

See you there.
