Student artistic creations are on show at Caroline Springs Gallery.

The Encore exhibition showcases the talents of Lakeview Senior College’s year 12 students studying studio art, visual communications and media studies.

College media studies teacher Naomi Olthof said there was something for everyone in the exhibition.

“We’ve got photographs on show, paintings – one student even designed a house,” she said. “It really showcases the multiple talents of our students. Because there’s a number of different subjects featured, there’s a lot of different pieces on show.”

Ms Olthof said the exhibition was the largest the school had mounted.

“It’s been so well supported – we’ve had more parents and students attend than ever before,” she said. “This is the major project for these subjects for the year, so it’s fantastic to see it so well supported.”

Encore’s grand opening was held earlier this month, kicking things off with a bang.

“The opening was a really great night,” Ms Olthof said.

“We had parents students, teachers … the mayor even attended and handed out some awards.”

The exhibition will run until Friday, November 2. Ms Olthof said she hoped the community would check it out.

“Everyone is welcome so come down and have a look,” she said.
