The “Make Your Mark” School Mentoring Program is an initiative of the St.George Art Society, designed to activate, engage and inspire creative thinking and art making by local young artists.
Participating High Schools:
Moorefield Girls High
James Cook Boys Technology High
George Girls High
Kogarah High School.
Mentoring and assistance is conducted by members of the St George Art Society. Students are given demonstrations and practical experience in the use of different media including acrylic, watercolour and sketching. Each student selects a media to use for a major artwork, which is then eligible for the St. George Art Society’s Outstanding Young Artist awards and exhibition at the Love Local Artisan Market and the SGAS Annual Art Show.

Fifteen students each prepared a major artwork which was exhibited at the SGAS 2023 Annual Art Show.
