From The Brink – A Collection of Ink

2009-10-13T17:35:00.005+08:00

10 places are available for “from the brink – A collection of ink” 09

‘Brink Collective Youth Arts Project Creation’, in association with The ‘Vancouver Art Center’ Present ‘From the Brink – A Collection of Ink”.

‘From the brink’ is an amazing opportunity for young emerging artists or arts enthusiasts between the ages of 16 – 21 to work alongside other young creative’s and professional artists to develop their skills and have their work shown publicly.

A series of laid back workshops will be held at Albany’s arts and cultural hub, the Vancouver art center during the month of December 2009 focused solely on the theme of ink and aiming to further develop and enhance the skills of young people.. Brink Collectives Project Coordinators have chosen quality, professional artists who will teach participants new skills and techniques and provide a valuable insight into the making of their own works.

From the brink boasts a non structured environment where participants can work at there own pace, where the onus is that they may engage as they wish, but engage. The aim is that at the conclusion of the nine sessions, participants will have built up a collection of ink drawings to be displayed at an exhibition at the Vancouver art center in January.

Thanks to the support of our sponsors, Country Arts WA, The Department of culture and the arts, Healthway, Drug Aware and YCulture, as well as the in-kind donation of venue and advertising from the Vancouver art center, it wont cost you anything to be a part of this project, it is absolutely FREE!!
