The Friends of the Gallery 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
What an amazing Soup Day we had!
Thank you to everyone for your support, and special thanks to our local chefs, restaurants, cafes, hotels and business houses who provided the sumptuous soups and fantastic raffle prizes. Check out the photos below – were you there?
Soup Day is a much-beloved major fundraiser for the Jacaranda Acquisitive Drawing Award. This year we had another SOLD OUT event, with 120 guests enjoying a beautiful day at the Gallery.
Soup Day will be back again in 2026, but for now … please follow the Friends on Humanitix to stay up to date with upcoming events, such as our Jazz in the Courtyard event being planned for 23 August 2025. Become a Friend and you will automatically be added to our mailing list and be the first to know about all of our events.
The Friends are proud to be the major sponsor of the Jacaranda Acquisitive Drawing Award.
