ART is flourishing in the Southern Downs with the fourth annual Art At St Marks set to be the best yet with a record number of artists entering an amazing 192 pieces of art.
The event at St Mark’s Hall on Grafton Street includes a lot of first timers with more than 50 per cent of the exhibiting artists entering for the first time, including some younger artists as well as some interesting new mediums.

All items will be for sale and winter warming beanies and scarves are expected to be especially popular.
A ticketed function Meet the Artist will be held on Saturday 18 July from 4 – 6 pm.
The ticket price includes hot and cold savouries, wine or punch and live jazz entertainment from Yangan’s Sue Needer.
