The 15th OCGA Art Exhibition and Sale went virtual for the first time in 2020. With most Old Camberwell Grammarians’ Association (OCGA) events cancelled, the Committee decided to reimagine the Art Exhibition so that the artistic talents of our community could still be celebrated.

21 talented artists made up of Old Boys, current and past staff, current and past parents and former Artists in Residence submitted their pieces. Ceramics, photographs, paintings, sketches and 3D art were showcased. Proceeds from the sale of works were donated by the OCGA to the School through the Ron Wootton Memorial Fund. The fund was developed to provide financial assistance to allow the enrolment of boys in the senior years at the School who would otherwise be unable to attend. This year just over $2,000 was contributed to the Ron Wootton Fund. Thank you to our generous sponsors for their support of this initiative – Deans Art, Chartwells, Eckersley’s Art and Craft, McCabe Architects and Vicki Hutchins Framers.

Special thanks to Cindy Parker from the Community and Development Office and Jeff Wang from the ICT Department for creating the website and bringing the virtual OCGA Art Exhibition & Sale 2020 to life.
