This is
our first Kirra Galleries News for 2012 in which we celebrate our tenth
anniversary at Federation Square. It seems like only yesterday that the Premier
of the day - Steve Bracks cut a ribbon at 11.00am and two minutes later walked
into the Gallery.
I have
always been a lover of Classical music and am a great fan of Kathy Selby and
her Trio, Selby and Friends. Kathy is one of
Australia's pre-eminent pianists and has been giving concerts at
Melbourne University's Conservatorium, but is moving her venue to
Federation Square's BMW Edge. Our Gallery is thrilled at the move and is
pleased to mark the occasion by welcoming the Trio and those members of the
audience who are on our email list see details of special offers below.
I look forward to welcoming you for post concert cocktails and a chance to meet the artists on Wednesday 21 March 2012.
