June 9, 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n

Blackbutt’s Butt Art Gallery will be holding a two-day fundraiser on June 25 and 26, but it won’t be at the Gallery.<\/p>\n

Instead, Butt Art will be transforming the nearby Blackbutt Memorial Hall for a Family Art and Fun Wiikend featuring a Nintendo Wii competition along with art displays and demonstrations.<\/p>\n

Butt Art Treasurer Val McGrath said the group hope to introduce the Timbertowns’ younger generation to art by combining the weekend event with gaming.<\/p>\n

“Nintendo Wii is something a lot of people are into and can do together,” Val said.<\/p>\n

“It’s a lot of fun and it’s something we’re sure lots of children will enjoy.”<\/p>\n

Children will also be able to take part in a number of art activities that will run during the event, including painting and crayon drawing, thanks to sponsorship from the South Burnett RADF committee who are providing art supplies.<\/p>\n

There’ll also be a karaoke competition in the Hall on the Saturday night for extra fun.<\/p>\n

Entry to the Family Art and Fun Wiikend is free but there’ll be a $5 fee to register for the Wii competition.<\/p>\n

Intending players can register in advance by phoning Val on 0437-474-954 or the gallery on (07) 4170-0221. Registrations will also be taken on site from 8:30am on Saturday, June 25.<\/p>\n

Food and drinks will be available at the Hall throughout the weekend, along with a licensed bar on Saturday night and raffles.<\/p>\n

Val said fundraising days were vital to keep the art gallery alive.<\/p>\n

“It’s important we get the community involved,” she said.<\/p>\n

“Butt Art is an outlet for our local artists as well as other artists from across the region, and it’s also a very good tourist attraction for the town.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
