The Twelve Signs

Artists from COMA - The Collaboration of Maleny Artists - have put together a small exhibition at Rosetta Books in Maple Street Maleny.

The exhibition is themed on the twelve signs of the western zodiac - each artist has interpreted their chosen sign with great imagination, and each piece carries with it a short story about the subject.
All artworks are offered for sale.
The exhibition runs until 21 June, and the bookshop is open
seven days from 9am to 5pm.

Maleny Image 11: making music

The Collaboration of Maleny Artists

 present their first exhibition for 2012 ...

Artists were given the challenge to produce works on a theme - Making Music in Maleny - to fit on a 12" x 12" canvas in any medium they choose - and thirty two of our finest  have come forward with a great exhibition. Subject matters vary from leaves to barbed wire and brass gongs. Each artwork has a story attached - so not only is the exhibition pleasing to view, but is also a good read into the minds of the artists as to what inspires their arts practice.

The exhibition is at one of Maleny's leading cafes - Maple 3 - and runs for four weeks until 30 April. The cafe is open 7 days from early morning to 5pm - at number 3 Maple Street ... so when next in town please drop in for a coffee and slice of their famous cheese cake and a wander around this exciting exhibition.

Enjoy ...
