Bevely Young Mosaics: Exhibition Launch in the Cocoon Gallery

Posted on

Launch Date: Thursday 10th November, 6 – 7pm

The whole community is invited to celebrate the launch of our latest exhibition titled ‘Cue, Queen of the Murchison’ : an exhibition of mosaics created by Bevely Young

Bevely has collected an array of objects from the outback near Cue and presents stories in the form of mosaics. Each piece is named after someone who lived in the area in days gone by who may have used some of the shards and chips that make up these amazing artworks. Bevely will talk briefly about her exploring and the creative process of bringing personalities to each artistic piece. All works are for sale.

Please RSVP if you intend on coming to celebrate as refreshments will be provided. Text message to Bevely on Mobile: 0428 866 338 or Email: bevelyyoung@icloud.com
