The Ku-Ring-Gai Art
Society (KAS) is a non-profit organisation, run by artists for
the benefit of artists and those interested in the arts.
Founded in 1965, the Society has established and maintained a
reputation for excellence, attracting artists from a wide
spectrum of disciplines, covering both traditional and
contemporary two dimensional works in all media.
The Society meets at 7.30pm on the first Tuesday of each
month at the Masonic Hall, Cnr. Pacific Highway &
Turramurra Ave. Turramurra, with guest speakers or leading
artists demonstrating a variety of techniques in oils,
watercolours, acrylics, drawing and much more.
The principle objectives of the Society are to foster all
branches of the Visual Arts and to enhance the status of art
and artists in the community by providing innovative and up to
date activities for artists to advance their talents.
Art exhibitions, workshops and demonstrations are just some
of the regular activities conducted by the Society.
Three exhibitions of members’ work are held each year at
Gordon and St Ives shopping centres, including the Annual
Awards Exhibition held at St Ives Shopping Village in July.
