Toys, they are such an integral part of growing up; from learning about how to make things work through Lego, to playing out epic battles with Power Rangers (and Barbie, I don’t judge). For some, toys were a thing of our youth, and for others they are still a way to express ourselves now through art.This March, I’m hosting "Batteries Not Included" - a group art show at Working Title Brew Co to highlight our love of all things toys! Whether you make art toys, draw toys or just want to see some of Australia's (and maybe the world’s 👀) leading artists in this field, this a show not to be missed!So come hang with me and a bunch of artists at >>Working Title Brew Co.<< for the OPENING SHOW party on Sat 7th March from MIDDAY and grab some great food and beers while you’re there! It’s free entry and there might even be some sneaky morning cartoons up on the projector to watch 🍻 The show then runs until the 1st April, so get in while you can! 🎉
A Group Art Show Coordinated by MechanicalPen
Hosted by Working Title Brew Co.
Here you can find all the rad pieces from the artists involved! Clicking on their image or artist name will take you to their socials/website so you can discover more of their art 🔥 If there's a piece that you are wanting to buy and you can't make it to the show, reach out to the artist and they may be able to ship it to you! If they can, swing Sam/MechanicalPen a message and he'll mark it as sold! 🔴As small businesses, artists love you when you tag us in any photos/stories online, so definitely get around sharing any of the works from the show, it makes a huge difference! 📷🔥
