The Warrnambool and District Artist's Society's (WADAS) Annual Awards Exhibition. The exhibition is open to the public from Saturday July 5th and runs through until Sunday 20th July from 12noon to 4pm daily at the Merri View Gallery Coramba Court Warrnambool. Gallery admission is free. This event is a highlight of the group’s year with members displaying new works in a variety of genres. The judge for this year is local professional artist/designer David Higgins from Nirranda Arts. David will be awarding prizes from around 100 pieces on exhibit including the overall winner of the prestigious Judith Watson Trophy These annual awards provide the over 70 members of the society with the opportunity to showcase and sell their works while gaining recognition of their artistic talent. Over many years at this annual event, WADAS has collaborated with Water for East Timor (WET) with proceeds from the sale of tickets from the opening night going towards the commitment of this local charity to provide clean water and sanitary systems to villages in Timor-Leste. All works in the exhibition are available for purchase.
