About Friends of the Arts Inclusive Resource

Founded in 2016

FAIR

are dedicated to making the

arts accessible & inclusive. 

 

Originally our mission was to deliver low cost, high quality art classes to the marginalised, particularly those living with mental health challenges. We achieved this by visiting each other’s studios and teaching what we knew, so that “Each student became the teacher and each teacher, the student.”

​

Since 2020 FAIR's team of dedicated volunteers have brought the community together in annual art exhibitions and events that have become extravaganzas celebrating the arts.

 

2020’s Kindness Emerging, 2021’s Reflections on Resilience and 2022’s Wild & Free showcased local emerging and established artists in fun and innovative ways.
