50th ANNIVERSARY EXHIBITION & CELEBRATION 50th ANNIVERSARY EXHIBITION & CELEBRATION
QQAS ‘painted’ a wonderful picture of 50 years of its history with many founding members
and early committee persons reliving our history and the successes at the 50th Exhibition
Celebration. The years have seen the development of this community group and how it has grown into
one of the NSW’s most vibrant Art Societies with an Art Competition/Exhibition every month featuring
an average 120 works. The strength of the Society is of course its members but today’s
artists are full of gratitude to the founding members who lit the original fire.
One of QAS early members was Meg Minty and she stated ‘The art starts on the banks Meg Minty and she stated ‘The art starts on the banks
of the Queanbeyan River and flows past the Australian National Gallery’!of the Queanbeyan River and flows past the Australian National Gallery’!

Yours in Art,
Barry Cranston
President
I I am particularly proud to be part of a wonderful Queanbeyan community group
that has grown from such humble beginnings to become one of the most exciting Art Societies in the
State of NSW. The Society ‘founding members’ sowed founding members’ sowed the seeds that every committee followed the farrows
that has seen our Art Society blossom into what it has become today. It was wonderful to see so many early members
return for the special 50th Anniversary Celebration. They took pride in talking about the early days and delighted to see
what our Art Society has become. I am pleased the way our present QAS Committee worked feverishly to pull the
QAS 50th Anniversary Celebration together, well done to all. Members are reminded that the 2018 QAS Calendar
is being ‘pulled’ together so if members want to make sure
they have a painting in it please contact me or send
me an image of the painting you want to go
into the calendar.

2018 QAS MEMBER’S CALENDAR 2018 QAS MEMBER’S CALENDAR
MMEMBERS, it might seem to be a long way off but the
2018 QAS Member’s Calendar has to be pulled
together soon, so please give some thought to your
work to go into the Calendar. Please send a good
quality photo of the work you would like to go into the
Calendar (it is free). QAS committee would like to hear from anyone who could advise
of a possible sponsor for this Calendar per an advertisement.
Please contact the President Barry Cranston Barry Cranston ([email protected] 0439392709).
BRING AND BUY BRING AND BUY
MMEMBERS please start ‘stacking’ any of your art materials you have no use for to bring them
to the QAS Bring And Buy day on Sunday 8th October 2017Sunday 8th October 2017. It is going to be a big day
with the 50th QAS Anniversary Presentation Opening a display of the QAS History.
Please contact Committee member Karen Hall Karen Hall re Bring and Buy. 0438010710 [email protected] [email protected]
THINK ABOUT SPONSORING? THINK ABOUT SPONSORING?
MMEMBERS are pleased with the monthly Art Compe-
tition/Exhibition the committee is pleased with the
members support on average 120 works each month
and 17 awards. To compare this with a large Art
Centre offering once a year $3,000 plus in a major prize
not getting 50 works entered proves we must be on the
right track. QAS dose not have a large sponsorship
base and we have to manage the running of the Gallery
and the committee must tread lightly. If we can
increase our sponsorship we can enlarge awards for our
members and keep the house (gallery) in order.
Please think about being a sponsor know matter how Please think about being a sponsor know matter how small!small!

Aug 13/14, Oils. John’s motivation for painting is his great
love of his native land and an engrossed observation of its
beauty. John’s workshops are for those who have mastered
the basics and wish to move onto new levels. The weekend
covers tone, temp, colour mixing, composition, atmosphere,
reflected light, reflections and other subtleties of the
Australian landscape.

Nov 18/19 Acrylics/Mixed Media;
This workshop is for intermediate to advanced painters
wishing to extend their skills by working outside their
comfort zone. We will be combining more than one
medium in our work with an emphasis on design,
colour and composition. Where possible I like participants
to work directly from a subject. If this is not possible the
way to approach working from photos will be explored.."
