THE Warwick Artists’ Group members and community members are hard at work at the moment preparing for their second Wearable Art Awards.
The awards will be held at the School of Total Education on Friday, 25 September from 6.30pm and if last year is anything to go by, will feature some very creative and highly original garments.
Last year’s event attracted more than 80 entries and organisers are hoping for similar numbers this year as the area’s artisans delve into their imaginations, cupboards and local stores searching for the perfect garments.
But before we get to the big parade in September a lot of work will have to be done.
Entries are open now for this year’s event, which is expected to become bi-annual after this one, and will close on 28 August.
Tickets are also available for the parade which will include drinks, the parade, award presentations and canapes and are $25 per ticket.
For more information and entry forms contact Juanita Faint on 0417 636 356 or email juanitafaint@bigpond.com.
