Sunbury Shores Art Centre is trialling documentation days for studio members. On a documentation day, the back gallery or another space at Sunbury Shores will be available for Sunbury Shore Artist or Full Studio members to book for artwork documentation. This gives artists a chance to document their work in a clean, open space or photograph works as an installation or arranged collection. Artists can use the wall, floor, easels, or plinths for this.

*Photo equipment will be available, but this is a self-serve opportunity. We are not offering education on documentation or doing it on the artists behalf. Due to limited resources, we are not able to offer one-on-one instruction, demos, or help during these sessions. If you wish to take advantage of these sessions but aren’t sure about using the equipment, please contact us at least 3 days before the session to see if we’re able to provide instructions/resources ahead of time or if someone is available to help you the day of.

Members are responsible for setting up their work, taking their own photos documentation, and resetting the space.*

How it Works

Dates for Documentation Day’s will be posted here as they are scheduled. When a particular date is open for booking, it will be noted on this page and available time slots will be visible on the Studio Calendar. To book a slot, email info@sunburyshores.org.

These sessions are only available to Artist or Full Studio Members and are on a first come, first serve basis.

*Artists may use their own camera or the provided camera.
