Head Teacher Cath Barcan has been out and about in the community as a guest speaker for a number of local art events. On the 17th of Septermber she spoke at St Paul's Grammar School in Penrith, for their annual 'artscape' exhibition. The show has a featured artist every year, and this year one of our current students, Shirley Ayres from the Certificate IV in Fine Arts was selected for the honour.
The topic of Cath's talk was the nature of creativity, and it's value and application in the community. This was also the broad theme when Cath recently spoke at the Blue Fringe Art Award presentation ceremony in Springwood. Blue Fringe is a mountains-based mental health advocacy body, which specialises in the promotion of creative pursuits. Cath spoke alongside Blue Mountains Mayor Daniel Myles and MP Phil Koperberg. This important annual art exhibition also featured work from some of our past and current students.
