Archive 2012 NOVEMBER 2012  Yass Arts Trail - 'Synaesthesia'
Sunday 4 November, 6:30 pm. Oddfellows' Hall, Comur Street Yass NSW. Featuring renowned cellist David Pereira and award winning visual artists Judi Power Thomson and Kerry McInnis, this concert has been specially designed for the 2012 YASSarts Arts Trail. 'Synaethesia' is a term which describes the idea that music poetry and the arts are part of a single continuum, one prompting a sensation in the other. Whilst David performs, Judi and Kerry will respond in a visual arts sense and vice versa. This is a concert not to be missed! It will take place on Sunday 4th November, 6.30pm at the Oddfellows' Hall in Yass as a special closing event to the CLASSIC YASS weekend.

Parkes ACT Drawn In is a free program offered by the National Portrait Gallery once a month, where a musician is invited to perform in Gordon Darling Hall, and visitors may set up and draw on easels and drawing boards. Some visitors draw the artist, some draw the building or the landscape, some draw each other, and some just come to hear the music - it’s very informal and relaxed and one of the Gallery's most popular programs.
