Sandgate’s vibrant art scene welcomes everyone, from first-time painters to seasoned artists, to join the Sandgate Art Society (SasArt), a group providing a supportive space for artistic exploration and community connection.
The society provides regular opportunities for artists to connect, learn, and showcase their work.
Regular Activities and Events
The society holds weekly untutored studio sessions on Monday evenings, allowing members to share ideas and discuss their projects. Once a month, professional development workshops provide structured learning opportunities.
The group also organises “Plein Air” art days, where members paint outdoors and visit galleries to see other artists’ work. Additionally, they host pop-up art sales along the Sandgate foreshore, providing artists with a space to sell their work.
Annual Exhibitions and Community Engagement
SasArt organises two major annual events: the Sandgate Easter Art Show and the Sandgate Creative Trail, which takes place over two weekends in October. Members can display and sell their art at these events.
The society also participates in local community events and connects with other local art groups, including the Shorncliffe Pottery Club Inc, Artrageous, and the Redcliffe Art Society.
Membership Information
Membership fees are due by 30 June each year. New members joining after 30 April will extend their membership until June 30th of the following year. Those interested in joining are encouraged to express their interest through the SasArt website or attend a Monday night studio session.
