Your Tutors
Miss Kerry loves to find new ways to share nature-inspired art, particularly with a new generation of artists. Kerry engages a variety of disciplines especially art, science, and sociology. Her greatest muse is the garden, forming the basis of her interconnected environmental practice that spans textiles, photography, landscape design and installations. She has regularly collaborated with ecologists, artists, health workers, community organisations, farmers and other stakeholders all woven together to create proposals for sustainable living. “The natural world has been a source of inspiration for artists since time immemorial, Art & creativity has the power to change hearts and minds… and the world around us”

Our contracted tutors are practitioner artists and educators, and have Working With Children Checks. Our learning approach is patient and practical, using demonstration to bring out the best for each student.
Our learning agreement
The learner is asked to participate in a cooperative manner, showing respect to the tutor and fellow learners. The group will engage in practical studio-based activities and participants must show care for the equipment supplied and the premises occupied. The learner will be shown how to clean and store equipment and will be expected to do so, by way of good studio practice. In a creative environment, coercive or aggressive behaviour is unacceptable. The learner should report concerns on these points to the tutor or parent immediately should they occur. Breaches may result in the learner forfeiting their place in the program. Art Club puts health and safety first.
Terms and Conditions In Brief
Learners, tutors, parents, carers, and visitors are asked to contribute to and be aware of our Child Safe Policy that states our commitment to the safety and wellbeing of child learners and others in our care.
