Kapi Art Space is still open for private viewing and we wan...t to continue to support those in need right now. So do keep in touch. We hope you keep well, and rested. We are grateful to all those who having to care for the unwell, and send out HUGE thankful vibes to all who are working hard to care for people in need. We hope as you adjust to each new day you will find ways to develop some creative solutions and outcomes that bring you to a quietened creatively colourful soul. We do hope to open our doors occasionally with distancing protocols before too long! We are missing all our regular team, partners and students, but keep in touch, we are working new ways of creating community, even at this time! . . . #stayrested #creativity #quietsoul #create #creativityrocks #youcandoit #care #community #onlinecommunity #paintingclassesonline #colourful #newday #keepcreating #thankyou #grateful #keeppainting #creativethinking See more

According to the Victorian regulations Gallerys are one of the community business that need to close their doors at this time. We support the decision to help keep our community safe and do our part to flatten that curve again! But of course we are sad the locals will not be able to see all our amazing artists work face to face for a while. ...And we will miss our family of visitors and artists! During this time we invite you to continue to enjoy our wonderful online gallery space. https://bit.ly/kapi-online We are happy to courier works and mail cards and smaller items to you if you are wanting something very special for someone special, or to brighten up your own life and home! We are offering private viewings with safe distancing if you are keen to see something first hand. Painting classes and courses with Heather Bradbury will pivot to now being held online again, with a number of great options to keep you creating at this time, and different days and times available each week. https://bit.ly/PAINTINGCLASSES-HB We dearly look forward to opening our doors hopefully again in late August. Until then we look forward to keeping you up to date on the upcoming Endure eMERGE exhibition and watch out for some other delights along the way!
