What's On in October 2015
The members of the Central Otago District Arts Trust are very pleased to announce the finalists selected for the 2015 Arts Gold Awards. A huge “thank you” to all the entrants and congratulations to all the finalists who are on this list in no particular order.
What's next? Well, each finalist will now prepare their art work and deliver it to Central Stories Museum and Art Gallery. There, it will be hung and the judges will spend time with these works on the day of the opening, in order to decide the Award winners. The winners of the $5000 Art Excellence Award, the $3000 Central Otago Artist Award and the two $1000 Merit Awards will be announced by the judges that evening at the Arts Gold Awards Ceremony. This event will begin at 6pm on Friday 16th October and tickets are now available from all Central Otago I-Sites, or you can purchase online

From Saturday 17th October the Arts Gold Awards exhibition will be open to everyone. Members of the public are also invited to the gallery at 2pm that afternoon for a guided tour of the show by the judges. This is a free event and we welcome and encourage all art lovers to come along. Voting gets underway for the Viewer's Choice Award of $500 and for those who are unable to attend the exhibition, an online gallery of the artworks will be available to view. The exhibition runs until the 29th November and people are invited to support their favourite work by casting a vote online or at the actual exhibition.
All finalists’ artworks are for sale, both online and from the gallery. The Opening Night presents a fantastic early opportunity to purchase a wonderful piece of art. Don't miss out on securing a ticket to attend this glamorous evening of wine, food, music and art, as tickets are limited. We look forward to seeing you there!
