Term 4 2024 - Abstract Art with Abby Chambers 9 week course
9 week term
Abstract Art class offers a friendly studio environment where you will have your own easel and table to set up your painting practice. Abstraction is about the pure essentials of art making, such as shape, line, colour, composition and tone. A language of it’s own, we look at contemporary artists and the way inspiration can be found through many different formats to arrive at abstraction. Many find a freedom and discovery of personal expression in moving away from recognisable form. You will have ongoing individual direction as you work on developing your own painting practice.

Term 4 2024 Yoga - Lane Cove Uniting Church
Lyn Brackell took up yoga 15 years ago to keep active but more importantly to find an inner strength to help her deal with the challenges of life. Now in her senior years, she has found that she is more resilient and have gained not only better health, but a freshness of mind with a brighter outlook on life.
The flowing yoga she teaches is a gentle but powerful way to relieve stress, build inner strength and condition your body. Based on fluid movements and controlled breathing, it rebalances as it exercises and energises. It is one of the most effective antidotes for modern day living and suits any age or fitness level.
The yoga classes are held at the Lane Cove Uniting Church on Figtree Street in Lane Cove.

Join Artist and Researcher Helen Pynor and Creative Producer Lizzie Crouch for three experiential workshops. Through hands-on experiences, the workshop series will explore the materiality of actual bone, its use in bone china making, and the fluid identities of temporary and/or hidden disabilities and mobility disabilities.
Drawing on bone china technologies, metal artefacts, and wax casting and forming, participants will reflect on their own body and experiences to create a series of personal objects. These objects will form an artwork to be exhibited at Gallery Lane Cove that represents a collective material exploration of (dis)ability identity – now, in the past or into the future.
Whilst this workshop will explore mobility disability - either short lived or on-going, past or present - there is no requirement that workshop participants have lived experiences of disability. We welcome makers, those with lived experience of disability, and anyone else with an interest in the subject matter. In reviewing the expression of interests we will seek a wide variety of lived experiences and skills that may be shared the course of the three workshops.
The workshops are sequential and designed such that participants attend all three sessions.
The Bone Drift workshops are fully-subsidised for all participants.
Potential participants are invited to complete the simple Expression of Interest form.
We will notify you of the outcome of your Expression of Interest.
In reviewing the Expressions of Interest, we will seek a variety of lived experiences, interests and skills that may be shared over the course of the three workshops.
