Thanks
A big thanks to our artists for their dedication in making & creating bespoke works for us to enjoy.
I also wish to thank our loyal supporters who return back either in person or online to buy gifts or treats for themselves. I wrote to one of my customers to say her house is our ‘2nd gallery off site’ - she has purchased many of our artworks and this means a lot to me and the artists to be able to do what we love.
I’ve enjoyed liaising with many people on the phone, by email and in person. An elderly lady read our local ‘Watzon’ bulletin and couldn’t believe a gallery was in her suburb. She called me to say how excited she was especially with the exhibition 8 | Connections and we must have talked for nearly an hour.
Community is what makes GOST that little bit more special and 7 years is a big milestone to continue this ethos. I’ll be honest. I do have my ups and downs. It’s not easy running a micro business but I’m thankful to be supported by VisitCanberra, our sponsors Little National Hotel, Collector Wines and my husband Adam. Here’s to 2025 and may it all bring us kindness, a sense of purpose and grace, Anne xx
