Invitation to Participate in the Hidden Oasis Art Show
Dear Students, Parents, Grandparents, Friends, and Community,
We are excited to invite you to take part in the Hidden Oasis Art Show, a unique and inclusive creative event where everyone is encouraged to participate—no matter your age, experience, or artistic background.
The exhibition will be held 24-26 October 2025 during the Straddie Arts Trail weekend and proudly hosted by Oasis on Straddie.
We are calling on you to create an original artwork—big or small in idea, but presented on A5-sized artwork cards (supplied for you or use your own). If your creativity takes you in a three-dimensional direction, small original sculptures are also most welcome.
Every artwork donated will be displayed in the show and sold at a set price of $20 each. In keeping with the spirit of surprise and discovery, the artist’s identity will remain hidden until after purchase. This means buyers choose based on the art itself, adding an extra layer of fun and excitement for both creators and collectors.
Your contribution not only celebrates creativity but also supports our local primary school through this special fundraising event.
