Date: 15 September � 10 OctoberVenue: LaTrobe University Visual Art Centre The work in this exhibition has been generated through a series of workshops co-ordinated by CreateAbility Events Network. CreateAbility was established in Bendigo in 2002 with the aim of providing opportunities through the arts for people of all abilities to express themselves and connect with others.
The works that are included in this exhibition are an expression of each individual’s personal creative impulse. Vibrancy and an immediacy of expression characterise the impact of their visual language.
These artists offer another voice and another perspective from those that are commonly seen and heard in the arts. Their perspectives expand the range of possibilities and experiences for everyone.
