Sunbeam Foods Sweatbox Art

With a selection of 35 pieces to be judged over 8 different categories, the 6th annual Sunbeam Sweatbox Competition and Exhibition included entries from all over the region including Menindee, Broken hill and of course Wentworth and Mildura.

Opening night saw a turn up of 60 invited guests with around 1100 turning up to see the exhibition over the following week.
‘Events like these would not be possible without the support of our sponsors, many of them Wentworth’s small businesses’ commented West Darling Arts’ James Giddey. Praise was also expressed to the Wentworth Community Bank for its financial support of the Wentworth Arts organising group and Wentworth Shire Council for the use of the Wentworth Town Hall as exhibition space.

Wentworth Arts and West Darling Arts would like to thank all those who supported the event from entrants to sponsors, those who attended the event, workshop facilitators and of course, the judges.
