New tutors at arts centre

Ettalong Beach Arts and Crafts Centre has two new tutors.

Ms Sherry McCourt will tutor the art class.

Ms Katherine Baker will run the evening pottery class that will now be held on Mondays and will also take over the children's classes on Saturdays.

The position of patchwork and quilting tutor has yet to be filled and the Centre is currently conducting interviews.

"This class will be traditional patchwork and quilting for those who have a passion for this craft and for those who would love to learn," said Ms Sullivan.

"Members of the community are invited to come to our centre any day during the first two weeks of term to meet with our members and tutors while they are busy being creative."

The term began on Tuesday, January 29, with patchwork, quilting, pottering and children's afternoon pottery held on Mondays, folk art and silk dyeing held on Tuesdays, oils and acrylics and pastels and drawing held on Wednesdays, art classes for adults and children and silver-craft classes held on Thursdays and watercolour painting on Fridays.

"We look forward to a year filled with lots of new students, plenty of creative new ideas and new friendships to form.

"Above everything else our main aim is to have fun," said Ms Sullivan.
