Over 20 young people are exhibiting their work in a group show titled A Different Perspective.

The show has been curated by student artists from Newcastle High School’s “Working Artists’ Program”. This program is for senior visual arts students, and assists them to gain first hand knowledge and experience of artists working in the community and learning about the role of the gallery in society.

The work they develop for the show will contribute to a portfolio of work that will assist in further studies.

The exhibition is being staffed by students, parents and Newcastle High School teachers.
