Just back from a quick trip up north to meet with the TRA team at the Latrobe office. Always a beautiful drive up North, the rolling green hills and chocolate brown paddocks never disappoint.
Very exciting to see the On Trak Gallery that TRA-K, one of our pilot groups, has now established in the Information Centre building near the Mural Park. In speaking with the President, Bronwyn Rossiter, it was the Mayor who approached the group to take on this space, which was for almost 2 years empty.
Capitalising on the success of the Working Art Space, with its new lighting, heating and facilities, this commercial gallery provides an opportunity for artists, jewelers and makers in Sheffield and beyond to exhibit and sell work. This now complements the role of the Working Art Space, which provides exhibition, workshop, meeting and studio space. The effort that TRA-K has put into improving the situation for creative makers is huge and is sure to have a massive impact on interest to both spaces.
