February 8, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

There was too much art for just one gallery in the South Burnett on Friday night, with both Council-owned galleries holding the official openings of their February exhibitions.<\/p>\n

In Kingaroy, the Kingaroy Arts Team’s Summer Show – which features works by KAT members – was launched by South Burnett Mayor Brett Otto at the Kingaroy Art Gallery.<\/p>\n

Works included paintings, ceramics, prints and photographs.<\/p>\n

Mayor Otto made special mention of KAT member and photographer Max\u00a0Walters, who hung the many works on display.<\/p>\n

The Mayor and arts portfolio holder Cr Danita Potter then jumped in a car to head up the highway to Wondai Gallery for the official launch of that gallery’s two February exhibitions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In Galleries 1 and 3, Kingaroy’s Rosemarie Matthews-Frederick and three of her students have a colourful display of paper tole craft.<\/p>\n

Then there’s the three Karens …\u00a0in Gallery 2, artworks by Karren Bolton (ex-Nanango, now NSW), Karen Shaw (Taromeo) and Karen Murray (NSW) are spread across the walls.<\/p>\n

This exhibition was officially launched by recently appointed South Burnett Tourism Officer Taylor Christies.<\/p>\n

The Kingaroy exhibition is on display from 10:00am to 4:00pm daily until February 26.<\/p>\n

The Wondai exhibition will also remain on show from\u00a010:00am\u00a0to\u00a04:00pm\u00a0daily until the end of the month.<\/p>\n

Admission to both galleries is free.<\/p>\n

Footnote: “Karen” has become a COVID-pejorative, but the pandemic nearly did affect the fate of the Wondai exhibition. In NSW, Karren Bolton drove south to collect the works from Karen Murray and then, adding them to her own pieces, headed to the Queensland \/ NSW border. Near Wallangarra, they were passed over to Karen Shaw under the careful watch of the police …\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
