PAINT THE TOWN RED.

Ceiling to floor and corner to corner, art.

Picture

2022 is the year of the wolf and we are going to paint the town red! The Dire Theatre Company is rallying the Illawarra's independent artists in 2022 and marching toward a cultural revolution in our region. Our first march with the arts is with the blue wolves of the ARTifacts pack. Historically, The Dire Theatre Company has anually hired a gallery space and exhibited the works of a single artist for a weekend as part of the ARTificats project in an effort to expose the artist and as an opportunity for them to sell their work. This time around, seeing as the ARTifacts Pack has their own gallery space at The Dire Theatre Company's resident art space 'The Forge', we will be opening our new home to visual artists in our region, until our walls run out of room, without any wall hire cost.

​
This January 8th and 9th, 2022, the ARTifacts project will be giving local visual artists the opportunity to hang their artworks on our walls without any hire costs. We want our walls to be ceiling to floor covered in local art. Be it painting, sculpture, sketching, textiles, whatever, If you have art, and we have room, we want to show it.
Without any wall hire costs, artists aren't risking a financial loss if they don't sell their works. Artists can negotiate with The Dire Theatre a reasonable commission on any works sold prior to committing.
In the spirit of making sure that as many people as possible can showcase their work, there will be some limitations but everything is open to discussion! For more info or to register your interest contact us!

JANUARY 8-9th @ THE FORGE 3/164 GIPPS ROAD GWYNNEVILLE, 2500
