As the social club of Grafton Regional Gallery, we arrange social functions to build a community of gallery supporters. Your generous donations and annual memberships enable us to host inclusive events for our extended community, including current and future Friends, volunteers, and the wider Clarence Arts & Culture Community. We present an annual program of events to fundraise for the JADA and support the Gallery.

Proudly hosted on Bundjalung Country
