SUMMARY:Janet Besançon Monokini
DESCRIPTION:Spring Family Fun Day		\n		\n			\n\nEvent		\n					\n				Australian–French artist Janet Besançon explores themes of labour\, resilience\, and cultural identity through a diverse range of mediums and sustainable practices. 			\n			\n\n\n\n\nJanet Besançon\, Monokini 4\, 2025\, pigments\, clay (detail)\n\n\n\n\n		\n					\n				\n					Event				\n				\n					Spring Family Fun Day				\n				When\n				\n					7 Sep 202410:00 am – 2:00 pm									\n			\n							\n		\n		\n\nHer work combines gouache\, acrylic\, oil\, pure French pigments\, and raw Gumbaynggirr country pigments with natural materials such as clay and charcoal\, grounding her art in both European and Australian traditions. \n\n\n\nMonokini is a striking series of 28 abstract paintings created using French pigments\, Australian white clay\, and everyday domestic utensils – sponges\, mops\, and kitchen tools. These objects\, often linked to unpaid household labour\, become instruments of protest and expression. The repetitive\, physical process mirrors the gestures of cleaning and caregiving\, while the final layers of white clay evoke healing\, silencing\, and erasure. \n\n\n\nThe number 28 is symbolic\, referencing the menstrual cycle and the rhythms of the female body. Through this\, Besançon honours women’s resilience and generational strength\, challenging the invisibility of domestic work. In Coffs Harbour – a city shaped by diverse migrant communities – the exhibition invites cross-cultural dialogue on gender roles and shared experiences. \n\n\n\nUltimately\, Monokini asks us to reconsider the tools we overlook\, the cycles we silence\, and the labour we too often take for granted.

SUMMARY:Seabastion Toast Seeing other people
DESCRIPTION:Spring Family Fun Day		\n		\n			\n\nEvent		\n					\n				Through portraiture\, Seabastion Toast examines observation as both discipline and encounter in Seeing other people. Each work negotiates the space between what is seen and what is felt\, between the speed of recognition and the slower accumulation of paint.			\n			\n\n\n\n\nSeabastion Toast\, Aimee\, 2025\, oil on canvas (detail)\n\n\n\n\n		\n					\n				\n					Event				\n				\n					Spring Family Fun Day				\n				When\n				\n					7 Sep 202410:00 am – 2:00 pm									\n			\n							\n		\n		\n\nWhen invited to participate in Australia’s first televised Portrait Artist of the Year\, Seabastion Toast had never painted alla prima (wet on wet technique) nor completed a work in under four hours. Faced with the constraint of speed and public scrutiny\, she did what she always does when confronted with a challenge: she trained. \n\n\n\nFor eleven weeks\, five days a week\, for four hours a day\, she restructured her process around immediacy and sustained observation. The resulting works\, many of which form this exhibition\, document that period of concentrated looking. Some remain raw four-hour studies\, while others have been further developed. Together they trace a shift in method while extending an ongoing investigation into perception.Anchored in portraiture but grounded in broader concerns of composition and attention\, these paintings examine observation as both discipline and encounter. Each work negotiates the space between what is seen and what is felt\, between the speed of recognition and the slower accumulation of paint.Working from both familiar and unfamiliar faces\, the paintings reflect on presence and on what remains when a fleeting encounter is translated into pigment. Some retain the urgency of their making; others carry the density of extended looking. Throughout\, light\, value and structure are used to test how perception shifts across a surface.These works invite the viewer not simply to look\, but to see through the changing conditions of light\, time and touch.Seabastion Toast is a contemporary Australian painter based on the mid-North Coast of NSW. Working primarily with figurative subjects\, interiors and domestic spaces\, she constructs structurally rigorous compositions that balance clarity\, pattern and atmosphere. Her paintings investigate the act of looking and the texture of everyday life\, using colour and value to carry emotional and narrative weight.Toast has been a regular finalist in major national prizes including the Portia Geach Memorial Award\, Mosman Art Prize\, Glover Prize and Sunshine Coast Art Prizes. In 2024 she won the $40\,000 Percival Portrait Prize and has twice received the Darcy Doyle Landscape Prize. In 2025 she appeared on ABC’s Portrait Artist of the Year Australia.

Develop\, Perfect.   \n\n\n\nThese untutored sessions\, held one Sunday each month\, offer three hours of uninterrupted creative time\, perfect for artists of all levels to slow down\, focus deeply\, and connect with the clothed figure through longer\, sustained poses.  \n\n\n\nWhether you’re just beginning or looking to push your creative boundaries\, this is your chance to:  \n\n\n\n– Sharpen your observation skills  \n\n\n\n– Refine your technique in your chosen medium  \n\n\n\n– Develop more layered\, detailed works overtime  \n\n\n\nWork at your own pace in a calm\, welcoming environment. While there’s no formal instruction\, Seabastion will draw and paint alongside participants\, providing a unique glimpse into her personal process and approach to figurative art.  \n\n\n\nEach session is gently facilitated to ensure a supportive and respectful atmosphere\, making it the ideal setting to experiment\, grow\, or simply enjoy a few uninterrupted hours of creative flow.  \n\n\n\nSessions are ticketed individually and run monthly. Each one is a fresh opportunity to reconnect with your practice and other artists.  \n\n\n\nDuration: 3 hours (with regular short breaks – tea coffee and biscuits provided)  \n\n\n\nAll mediums are welcome\, including drawing\, painting\, and mixed media. Basic materials such as paper\, charcoal\, graphite\, and a small selection of acrylic paints will be provided. If you’d like to work with other materials\, feel free to bring your own – just ensure they’re low-irritant and easy to clean up.  \n\n\n\nModel: Clothed and seated in the same position throughout (with lighting) \n\n\n\nFacilitator: Seabastion Toast \n\n\n\nEquipment: Easels\, stool\, chair\, clips and boards provided

Within each relic\, the LEGO® civilisation has adapted to the distinctive character of the artefact it inhabits. A vintage refrigerator becomes a cryogenic health resort and a Volkswagen Beetle houses an energy revolution\, each with hundreds of hidden stories waiting to be uncovered.  \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n		\n					\n				\n					Event				\n				\n					Spring Family Fun Day				\n				When\n				\n					7 Sep 202410:00 am – 2:00 pm									\n			\n							\n		\n		\n\nTicket Prices\n\n\n\nAdult$21.00Child (4 – 16 years)$13.00Student/Concession$15.00Family (2 Adults + 2 Children)$55.00Infants (3 years and under)FREE\n\n\n\nBuy your tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition Highlights: \n\n\n\n\n\n\n12 immersive displays combining vintage objects with intricate worlds built from LEGO® bricks \n\n\n\nCreated by LEGO® Masters winners Jackson Harvey and Alex Towler \n\n\n\nLayered storytelling that rewards curious minds of all ages with details and discoveries \n\n\n\nInteractive build area where you can create and display your own model using LEGO® bricks \n\n\n\nCustom scavenger hunt with different versions for children and adults \n\n\n\nAudio guide: Download the free accessible audio description guide to your device before arriving and remember to bring your own headphones for the best listening experience \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis is not your typical exhibition. RELICS: A New World Rises is an immersive art experience that’s equal parts nostalgic and thought-provoking – what Co-Creator Jackson Harvey describes as “the love child between an antique shop\, The LEGO® Movie\, and Blade Runner.” \n\n\n\nDon’t miss this extraordinary exhibition where forgotten objects and LEGO® brick creations tell tales of a possible future. \n\n\n\nLEGO® is a trademark of The LEGO Group which does not sponsor\, authorise or endorse this exhibition.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nPlan Your Visit To Coffs Harbour\n\n\n\n    \n                    \n                \n                                    \n                        \n                                                                                            \n                                                                    \n                                                                                                                        RELICS and The Observatory Apartments Couples Package\n                                                        \n                                                                    Enjoy two adult tickets to RELICS at YAM\, two nights accommodation in Ocean View Studio Apartment for two at The Observatory Apartments and a $70 voucher for dinner or breakfast at Stef & Co. \n                                                            \n                                                            \n                                    \n                                        \n                                    \n                                \n                                                    \n                    \n                                    \n                        \n                                                                                            \n                                                                    \n                                                                                                                        RELICS and BIG 4 Park Beach Holiday Park Family Package\n                                                        \n                                                                    Enjoy a family ticket ( 2 Adults & 2 Children) to RELICS at YAM and two nights accommodation in a Beach Villa at Big 4 Holiday Perk at Park Beach. \n                                                            \n                                                            \n                                    \n                                        \n                                    \n                                \n                                                    \n                    \n                                    \n                        \n                                                                                            \n                                                                    \n                                                                                                                        Discover Where to Stay\, Eat and Explore on the Coffs Coast\n                                                        \n                                                                    Coming for RELICS?
