Diggers Rest Primary School held its 2000 piece art exhibit on Thursday, March 30.

The Great Glow Show art exhibit included work from all the students at the school.

Diggers Rest art teacher, Taryn Paterra said she wanted to create a glow in the dark disco cave with fluorescent works of art.

“The kids [entered] four pieces of art each, with 3D glow worms, disco balls, neo clay sculptures, paintings and more,” Ms Paterra said.

“We have over 400 kids… so the event [featured] over 2000 art pieces.”

This art exhibition will be the final celebration of the art room before it gets demolished and the class moves into the new art room in the specialist hub.

This hub has been made possible after the school received $13.4 million to upgrade its facilities from the states 2022-23 budget.
