Welcome
We acknowledge and pay respects to the people of the Yugambeh language region of the Gold Coast and all their descendants both past and present. We also acknowledge the many Aboriginal people from other regions as well as Torres Strait and South Sea Islander people who now live in the local area and have made an important contribution to the community.
One Arts Gold Coast is a non-profit organization developed to assist artists of all ages to embrace their creativity and share their art in a Gallery setting.
Every month we have an Artist in Residence program where we assist and mentor artists in learning what they need to do to exhibit their artwork to develop and promote their arts-based careers. We also provide space for artists and arts organisations to develop programs, projects and workshops.
‘Through our community of creative people, we promote the Gold Coast as a focal point for the arts, generating sustainable opportunities for artists, whilst achieving cultural and creative awareness through the arts.’
Exhibition on Now
This month’s exhibition, fairly named ‘Life is like a Liquorice Allsort’ features a range of abstract impressionist and figurative works from local artist, Peter Swaddle.
Peter produces bold multi-layered paintings in an abstract impressionist style, often including figures and animals into the landscape to add interest or a focal point to his work.
His journey has recently included producing works incorporating Collage and using an array of materials plus combining his own photographic works and characters from previous paintings.
Coming Soon in October
