Surf Coast ARTS inc
participates in PORTAL (2020)


Surf Coast ARTS inc committee members proudly participated in the Surf Coast Shire's PORTAL sessions. Each Zoom event is recorded and made available to view through the PORTAL website and the Surf Coast Shire Youtube page. The videos we were involved in directly can be found on this page - just to make it all a bit easier!

PORTAL was produced by the Surf Coast Shire in response to the Covid-19 Pandemic of 2020. Through June, July and August 2020, PORTAL was developed to keep us connected, creative and collaborating – offering an online space to capture the work of our region’s local creatives and how they are adapting to change.

Unfurling Surf Coast Artists: Julie Dyer in Conversation with Mark Trinham

Prior to any ideas about a Surf Coast arts sector, artists were ensuring they had a voice. Ideas of environmental groups and the philosophy of local artists were, and are, closely aligned. Join Surf Coast Arts Inc Treasurer Julie Dyer and multi disciplinary artist Mark Trinham as they “unfurl Surf Coast artists”. This is the first of PORTAL's Sunday Morning Sessions 'Women in Conversation'. A series of interviews, panel discussions and in-depth discussion hosted by and featuring pre-eminent women in arts on the Surf Coast.

Launch: Natural Connections Project

Host Sally Groom (President Surf Coast Shire Art Space, Anglesea & Torquay MAC Committee Member) joins artist Caroline Hawkins (Surf Coast Arts Inc Vice President) to discuss the intentions behind Caroline's new project. Caroline is an Anglesea artist who has worked with natural materials to create ephemeral works for several years.
