THE one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of higher education in Bendigo will be once again marked during the 2023 La Trobe Regional Art Educators Exhibition.<\/p>\n
Set to acknowledge the ongoing work, diverse talents, and passion of greater Bendigo\u2019s art teachers, the second show of its kind is featuring creative pieces by the educators, rather than their students.<\/p>\n
Visual arts academics Dr Kylie Banyard and Dr Andrew Goodman are leading the project, which first launched pre-pandemic and has a goal to nurture links between the uni and local schools.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat means 2023 is our first year of emerging properly Andrew and I are very excited that at least 30 art educators will show their works,\u201d Dr Baynard said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe exhibition also acts as a mixer of sorts, allowing prospective students to meet possible future educators and, of course, it\u2019s also great for past students to connect with their old teachers again.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe exhibition is open to the public and will provide locals and visitors with a comprehensive look at the extraordinary diversity of artwork being produced by the educators of the region, giving these incredibly talented teachers their own well-deserved moment in the sun.\u201d<\/p>\n
The 2023 La Trobe Regional Art Educators Exhibition is free to the public at the Phyllis Palmer Gallery at La Trobe\u2019s Bendigo Campus, and is open Monday to Friday, 10am to 4pm, until Friday 11 August.<\/p>\n
This event is just one on the 150 Years of Tertiary Education in Bendigo calendar, which is being delivered by La Trobe University in partnership with Bendigo TAFE and the Bendigo Tertiary Education Anniversary Foundation.<\/p>\n
Celebrations will continue throughout the year, including lectures, forums, and reunions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
