Veolia Mulwaree Trust has generously awarded the Bowral & District Art Society with a fantastic grant of $12,399. This grant money will be used, in conjunction with money raised by the BDAS, to renovate the kitchen at the Bowral Art Gallery. The gallery hosts up to 32 exhibitions a year all with opening events as well as other social functions. A new kitchen with ample storage and easy usability will be greatly appreciated by everyone.
The BDAS is a not-for-profit society that relies on it's membership, fundraising events, gallery/studio hire and grants to fund its' organisation. Grants such as this are vital to the society and greatly appreciated.
