Previous Events

A Feast of the Senses 2004

At the start of 2004 the Chameleon Arts Collective decided that we would not only have an exhibition that would highlight the talents of visual artists from this region, but extend our repertoire to include artists' workshops, writers, musicians, singers and other performing artists. In our exhibition we want to present a diverse artistic event that include works from local and Western District sculptors, photographers, painters, printmakers and mixed media artists.

Chameleon Arts aims to inspire participation in the creative process and the production of artwork, develop networks between artists and art lovers as well as encourage community, business and government to support the growth and public awareness of local artists and their work.
