In conjunction with the Lane Cove Council, Centrehouse has been organising the Eve Vonwiller Youth Art Awards since 1995. These awards have been supporting and recognising the creative talents of 5 - 7 year olds throughout Sydney's North Shore and are dedicated to the memory of Eve Vonwiller, an inspiring and passionate art teacher who taught formany years at Centrehouse, initiating the recognition of the Youth Art Awards.
The awards are run during the Lane Cove Cameraygal Festival and form an integral part of the celebration. Children and teenagers are invited tosubmit works of painting, drawing, printmaking, photography and sculpture inspired by a theme relating to living inthis special local and global community.
This year's theme is "People of the World" and celebrates the diversity of cultures and the people that make our world such an amzong place.
Each year the Awards are judged by a generous group of local artists and in 2008, the Awards will be judged by the renowned local artist, Yve CLose and the current President of the Lane Cove Art Society, Chrissie Lloyd.
The artworks are submitted and judged in three sections: Section One: Lower Primary (Kindy- Year 3) Section Two: Upper Primary (Year 4 - Year 6) Section Three: High School (Year 7 - Yea 12)
There are great prize packs of art materials donated by Eckersley's Art & Craft to be won in each section, with an additional $100 gift voucher for the teenage section.
