Wintringham is delighted to showcase the creativity and talents of our clients through our online exhibition, ArtSpace 2024. Coinciding with Homelessness Week (5-11 August), ArtSpace is an annual event which offers Wintringham clients an opportunity to submit artworks to be selected and featured in either our calendar or greeting cards.

Thank you to our wonderful judges – Lyndy and Lucinda White from the Peter & Lyndy White Foundation, artist and Wintringham volunteer Dot Lipmann AM, and Wintringham Board Member, Jane Boag. Our judges had the difficult task of judging 122 entries, and they put their passion and enthusiasm for ArtSpace into selecting our 16 artworks.
This was our fifth year holding the exhibition online, and coinciding with Homelessness Week, our People’s Choice Awards provided an opportunity for members of the public to get involved in ArtSpace and nominate up to five of their favourite pieces.
We would like to thank our sponsors, Melbourne Artists’ Supplies, for their continued generosity and support with our People’s Choice Awards. The team at Melbourne Artists’ Supplies donated a $200 voucher that went to our first-place winning artist Cynthia who created Dignity of Trees as voted by the public; a $150 voucher that went to the runner-up artist, Shirley who created Bathing Boxes; and a $150 voucher was given to a randomly selected voter, Shanelle, who voted for Pixie by Cyril as her favourite piece. After being notified about her winning vote, Shanelle said, “I’m surprised and very grateful to be picked as a winner. I voted for "Pixie” as I liked the use of the dots in the background to enable the pixie to stand out on the canvas.”
Congratulations to all our winners!
