SUMMARY:Opening Night
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the New England Regional Art Museum for the opening night of two new exhibitions: DistoMorph and Drawn From Pain\, Written from Truth. \n\nDistoMorph: Svenja\nDistoMorph is an immersive exploration of colour\, texture and transformation inspired by the intricate forms of the natural world. Drawing from photographic observations of organic details magnified to a macro scale\, the exhibition reimagines nature through vivid distortions and abstracted forms that feel both familiar and otherworldly. Through richly embellished textile works and sculptural forms\, pattern\, shape and colour expand beyond their original boundaries\, creating kaleidoscopic compositions that celebrate beauty\, growth and sensory abundance. \n  \n\nDrawn From Pain\, Written from Truth: Amera Ali and Suad Smo \nDrawn From Pain\, Written from Truth brings together the powerful testimonies of Amera Ali and Suad Smo in an exhibition that speaks to survival\, memory and resilience. Captured by ISIS as young girls during the Yezidi genocide\, both artists draw on lived experience to share deeply personal accounts of displacement\, violence and endurance. Through text\, Amera Ali reflects on trauma\, survival and the difficult process of rebuilding a life after unimaginable loss\, while Suad Smo’s artworks give visual form to grief\, cultural memory and resilience. Together\, their practices become acts of witness and resistance\, ensuring stories too often silenced are seen and heard. \n  \nExhibition proudly supported by Armidale Sanctuary Humanitarian Settlement \n  \n\nEvent Information\nDate: Friday 12th June\nTime: 6pm – 8pmArtist Talk with Amera Ali and Suad Smo: 5.30pm\nLocation: New England Regional Art Museum\nCost: FREE \n\nCredit: Svenja\, Expiration\, 2023.

SUMMARY:Term 2 2026 | Wednesday Art Class with Kerry Gulliver
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy the stimulus of doing art in a group. \nWhile individual guidance comprises the main bulk of the class\, I will also be doing regular demonstrations on anything related to painting and drawing\, such as collage\, paint transfer\, frottage\, sgraffito\, dry brushing\, stencilling\, and more. If you are new to art I can help you get started on the basics\, such as looking at line\, colour\, perspective. \nYou are welcome to join the class no matter what your skill levels are. If you are unsure of the how to begin\, just turn up on the first day and I can help determine the best approach for you. \nThe class is quite casual\, with many of the ongoing students working on their own projects\, taking guidance as needed. \nKerry Gulliver is a skilled artist and educator who has exhibited regularly in Armidale\, Sydney\, and Tamworth. She has trained in visual arts\, animation\, colour theory\, and graphic design; she works regularly with community and other groups to run a range of art courses. \nDates |  Wednesday April 29  – Wednesday  July 1 (10 weeks)  \n\nTime | 10:00am – 3:00pm \nVenue | Packsaddle Studio (located at the rear of NERAM ) \nCost |  Friends of NERAM/Culture Club Members – $329\, General – $362 \nMaterials | BYO – please see below for a list of recommended supplies \nMin 10/Max 18 \n \n\n  \nFor more information please email foh@neram.dev.nucleoserver.com \nImage | Courtesy of Kerry Gulliver \n\nMaterials required for class:\n\nBring any reference material that inspires you\, whether photographic\, or of other artwork.

If you like to draw bring Cartridge paper (A3 or A4 size)\, pencils in a range of hardness (but more in the soft range)\, rubbers\, crayons\, coloured pencils and any other materials that you like to work with. \nFor painting\, acrylic paint is the most practical (some people are using oils or watercolours).

SUMMARY:Term 2 2026 | Wednesday Art Class with Kerry Gulliver
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy the stimulus of doing art in a group. \nWhile individual guidance comprises the main bulk of the class\, I will also be doing regular demonstrations on anything related to painting and drawing\, such as collage\, paint transfer\, frottage\, sgraffito\, dry brushing\, stencilling\, and more. If you are new to art I can help you get started on the basics\, such as looking at line\, colour\, perspective. \nYou are welcome to join the class no matter what your skill levels are. If you are unsure of the how to begin\, just turn up on the first day and I can help determine the best approach for you. \nThe class is quite casual\, with many of the ongoing students working on their own projects\, taking guidance as needed. \nKerry Gulliver is a skilled artist and educator who has exhibited regularly in Armidale\, Sydney\, and Tamworth. She has trained in visual arts\, animation\, colour theory\, and graphic design; she works regularly with community and other groups to run a range of art courses. \nDates |  Wednesday April 29  – Wednesday  July 1 (10 weeks)  \n\nTime | 10:00am – 3:00pm \nVenue | Packsaddle Studio (located at the rear of NERAM ) \nCost |  Friends of NERAM/Culture Club Members – $329\, General – $362 \nMaterials | BYO – please see below for a list of recommended supplies \nMin 10/Max 18 \n \n\n  \nFor more information please email foh@neram.dev.nucleoserver.com \nImage | Courtesy of Kerry Gulliver \n\nMaterials required for class:\n\nBring any reference material that inspires you\, whether photographic\, or of other artwork. It’s a good way to get started. I have on display art books for referencing also. If you like to draw bring Cartridge paper (A3 or A4 size)\, pencils in a range of hardness (but more in the soft range)\, rubbers\, crayons\, coloured pencils and any other materials that you like to work with. \nFor painting\, acrylic paint is the most practical (some people are using oils or watercolours). You will also need brushes\, canvas or paper. Heavier papers are better to paint on\, such as 180gsm or higher. I like the medium or rough textured paper. Cheaper paper is OK for experimentation. \nTerms and Conditions\n\nAll bookings for events\, art classes and workshops require payment in full at the time of booking\nA minimum number of 10 students required for classes to proceed\, please book and pay by Thursday 23 April 2026 to ensure classes go ahead\nPlease be aware that once bookings close\, we are unable to offer a refund\nIf the class does not proceed\, you will be refunded any cash amount\nNERAM events have a limited capacity and use a ticketing system. Bookings are essential\nStudent contact details may be passed on to facilitators for communication purposes
