It’s fully recovered from Covid and back from its hiatus – yes it’s the Bayside Art Show 2023. The Gala Opening Night was wonderful, as is the event set up and staging. It is a real credit to Norm Thomas, Anne Holland, and the whole Art Show team. Congratulations to all involved. (Highlights of Art Show below).
I am looking forward to this coming Thursday. it’s a packed evening and features David Whiting as our main speaker. David is a lawyer, Radio commentator and a long-standing Rotarian. And its our last meeting at the Brighton Beach Hotel for 2023 as the following week’s meeting will be at the Royal Brighton Yacht Club with Anne Ross, a local artist and sculptor as the guest speaker.

Bayside Art Show testimonial
"Congratulations to Brighton Rotary for its presentation of a fine quality exhibition that has had the benefit of first-class efficiency in areas of administration as well as the all-important experienced professional curation.
As a presenting artist, I enjoyed an instant welcome and endearing sense of warm camaraderie. This atmosphere of kindness transferred through to the Thursday evening cocktail party.
As a first time entrant, I am honoured to have my abstract work selected for physical showing. I value the tasteful inclusion of works whose expression is of abstract form, as eclecticism always enhances displayed artistic content."
Why not come on down and see the rest of the Show at the Brighton Town Hall. There are more great paintings to see and purchase!
