The Ashburton Society of Arts (ASA) Annual Exhibition returns to the Gallery this July for its 58th incarnation. This exhibition is a smorgasbord of works from local, national, and guest artists in a variety of media.

All works displayed in the ASA exhibition are available to purchase. The commissions from sales directly contribute to the running of the ASA studio, which is located at 53 Short Street, Ashburton, 7700.

Short Street Studio is a dynamic space that prides itself in being a venue for all. The Studio hosts a variety of art-inspired workshops, meetings and events, and has acquired a great art resource library over the years.

ASA members will be present at the Gallery everyday throughout the exhibition. This is a brilliant opportunity to visit and learn more about one of Ashburton’s longest established art  organisations, and peruse and purchase the artworks on display.

Monique Connell – Jewellery

Renate Galetzka – Pottery

Anna Gibbs – Painting

Brian Laubscher – Mixed Media (Wire Art)

Struan MacDonald – Painting
