2015 Art in the Gardens with Friends

The official opening of the 8th Annual Art in the Gardens with Friends will take place in the Visitor Centre on Friday 20 March, at 5:00pm for 5.30pm.

From 1 pm to 4:30 pm on Friday 20 March there will be a special preview of the Exhibition for Friends of ANBG.

The Exhibition will be open to the general public from Saturday 21 March until Sunday 19 April. All of the works to be exhibited will portray native Australian plants, many of which can be found in the ANBG Gardens. A percentage of all Exhibition sales will go to support the Friends activities.

Each day a member from one of the Botanic Art Group will be available in the Visitor Centre to answer any questions you may have about the Botanic Art Group or about the works on display. There will also be a selection of cards and bookmarks for sale. A beautiful painting of 'Native Lilies' by artist Vivien Pinder will be the raffle first prize this year. The promotional material used to advertise the Exhibition depicts four paintings by prominent Botanic Art Group artists – these paintings will be in the Exhibition for sale.

This will be a great opportunity to buy a beautiful art work as a gift for that special person in your life, and to support the Friends of the ANBG at the same time.
