Welcome to the 48th Lindfield Art Show + Fair
The P&F at Holy Family is delighted to invite you to come and enjoy us over the weekend of September 6th—8th to celebrate the Lindfield Art Show and Fair for 2024. The highlight in our calendar of events for the school year is the Lindfield Art Show and Fair, which continues to be the single most significant event that we host and showcases the fantastic community of our school and parish!
Prepare to be delighted with the range of activities we have in store for you over the weekend. There's something for everyone, from carnival games to a petting farm, sausage sizzle, face painting, and a delectable array of baked goods.
And that’s just the beginning. You'll be able to explore over 200 artworks in our pop-up gallery in the school hall. Showcasing local, regional, and inter-state talent, from multi-prize winners to local hobbyists - there's something to suit every taste and budget. We're thrilled to welcome back many of our regular artists – and we know many of you will be eager to grab a piece from some of our favourites who sold out quickly last year!
The LASF has been running since 1976, when the parents of Holy Family Catholic Primary School came together to organise a fundraiser centred around an art exhibition. Known as the Holy Family Arts and Craft Show, the art show featured high-quality art and craft and quickly became the major event on the school calendar.
Over the years, the show continued to expand and evolve to become the Lindfield Art Show and Fair. The art remained the focus, but there were also book stalls, homemade delights, an endless supply of delicious cakes, a white elephant stall, and handmade treasures like knitted socks, jumpers, and scarves for sale. The kids enjoyed watching the teachers succumb to the dunking machine, while the parents sat hopeful for a win on the chocolate wheel. Everything was donated or made by the school community and parish.
Now in its 48th year, the annual Lindfield Art Show and Fair is the North Shore’s premier art show. Visitors come from far and wide to enjoy a weekend of art, market stalls, food, and entertainment.
Although the faces on the organising committee may have changed, the commitment of parents, generosity of the community, and school spirit continue to thrive. We are very proud of our event and achievements and will continue working hard to preserve this celebrated legacy for generations to come.
We look forward to welcoming you to our special event.
Olwyn, Kate, Stephen and the wider team!
