George Burns Memorial Art Exhibition 54

Every year school students from around the Waitaki share their artistic talents with us. The Forrester Gallery asks all the schools and early childhood education centres in the Waitaki District to contribute student artwork to the George Burns Memorial Art Exhibition. It is a showcase for the community and a celebration of children’s art.
