As a starting point, here is some background on the theme, “Gaia Is”…

Wikipedia- In Greek mythology Gaia is the personification of Earth. Gaia is the ancestral mother of all life.

Gaia hypothesis that Earth and the biological systems behave as a huge single entity.

The idea that the Earth is alive may be as old as humankind. The ancient Greeks gave her the powerful name Gaia and looked on her as a goddess.

About DAS Exhibitions…

Our four exhibitions per year feature Visual and Performing Arts and Crafts, and are open to all exhibitors of all ages- DAS members and non-members, from any area.

Each of these four, new-style exhibitions runs for THREE MONTHS, and each exhibition has a theme.

Thanks to our generous sponsors, there are prizes for the best work inspired by the theme, as well as prizes for various categories and age groups (Junior, Youth and Adult) within the three sections (Visual Arts, Performing Arts and Crafts).

Everyone- DAS members and non-members- are welcome to enter, attend the opening, and/or participate in the free, fortnightly ‘Gig in the Gog’ performing arts events, held at the DAS gallery.

While there are exhibition entry fees for art/craft works, artists/makers/artisans will pay NO COMMISSION on sales of works entered in the exhibitions.

There is a page with Frequently Asked Questions about the new-style exhibitions here.

 

The 2025 Dungog Archies remains at the same time of year, being incorporated into our third new exhibition, the 2025 April to June exhibition. (The 2023 Dungog Archies page is here.)

The fourth exhibition, also with a theme to be announced, will run from July to September, 2025.
