For our February Family Sunday, discover the etchings and woodcuts of Renaissance artist Albrecht Dürer in the AGGV exhibition Dangerous Beauty: The Prints of Albrecht Dürer.
Learn how to make your own monogram, inspired by the artist’s distinctive monogram. Sketch a scene from a fairy tale, employing cross-hatching and stippling as Dürer did to create shadow and depth. In honour of Valentine’s Day, decorate cookies to share with those you love, using icing as a drawing medium to make images inspired by Dürer’s prints. Join us for an afternoon of fun and imagination!

Three Victoria artists present Writ Large - Contemporary Works on Paper
Three Victoria artists draw on their pasts as professional writers and editors to exhibit a collection of large-format works inspired by the emotional and intellectual energy of written language.
Georgina Montgomery, Louise Oborne, and MaryLou Wakefield use words and text as part of their visual language to amplify a compelling idea, question, or life experience personally meaningful to them.
In this series, the artists demonstrate their individual stylistic approaches to interpreting 'Writ Large' and invite viewers to find their own meaning and interpretation in the works.
Writ Large will be on at arc.hive artist run centre October 4 - 19 and open for viewing Saturdays and Sundays from 12 - 4 pm.
An opening reception with the artists in attendance will be on Friday, October 3, from 7 - 9 pm.
