With a growing demand for event organizers and funding bodies for various levels of cover for artists, Southern Tablelands Arts (STARTS) have been working hard with a number of insurers and are excited to now offer the first in a new range of Public & Product Liability cover aimed specifically to individual artists. This is not just for visual artists but writers, musicians and performers of all persuasions. You may be suprised just how vunerable you can be as an arts practitioner so we advise you to attend this forum. Click on image for further details.

Yass Valley sculpture is featuring both nationally and internationally this month! The latest edition of the National Trust magazine carries a story about the highly successful ‘Sculpture in the Paddock’ expo mounted by YASSarts in 2013 and is featured on their cover. On top of this, sculptor Al Phemister (one of the primary organisers of Sculpture in the Paddock) has had his work and home featured in the current issue of ‘Australian Country’ magazine and an international client install his work in a public space in Kuala Lumpa. Well done one & all!
