Old Cameras Wanted!
The Peppercorns (10s & 11s) are looking at photography this term. If you have any old cameras that you can donate to the Art room, they would be very much appreciated. We are after working cameras of all kinds... digital, film, auto, manual, Polaroid. Broken film cameras could also be helpful as the children can pull them apart.
Please drop them off at the Tree House Studio Wednesday to Friday or leave them with classroom teachers Monday/Tuesday.
Anton Gerner Exhibition
Anton Gerner (Preshil alumni, cohort 1987) is an
award-winning furniture designer, maker - and superb wood craftsman . His uncompromising high-quality construction and attention to detail are achieved by using traditional finishing techniques to create heirlooms of the future.
It’s taken basically 30 years to develop the style, the skills and the veneer matching, and all of that’s now coming together for this exhibition. I’ve been working on this exhibition for eight years now and these are pieces I really wanted to make for myself, using materials that I’ve collected over the years. - Anton Gerner
A collection of beautiful bespoke contemporary furniture can be viewed at:
