The Society, which was founded in 1946 is a lively and thriving nonprofit-making organisation with close to 150 members. Its aim is to promote art through demonstrations, workshops, and exhibitions. Membership is open to anyone who has an interest in art.
Rosemary Drysdale, chairperson of the Society said "We're looking forward to welcoming the public to our show which we hope will be a resounding success."
This year, the President’s Award has been renamed the Andrew Forrest Memorial Trophy in honour of the Society’s immediate past president who was tragically killed in a traffic accident earlier this year.
