Peter Hitchener noted how impressed he was with the exhibition, particularly the individuality of the different artists.

Many of the artists came along and were thrilled to see how well received their work was amongst the crowd.

Able Australia’s Business Development Manager, James Garland, was very proud to announce that the Ableart program, which started as a workshop designed to facilitate creative outlet for those people supported by Able Australia will now become a permanent service.

The Ableart exhibition ran between the 24th and 29th July with almost all of the artwork being sold; funds raised go to the artists and to supporting further equipment for the Ableart program.
