DREAM MACHINES – ROSA FEDELE
Whimsical, playful and nostalgic, DREAM MACHINES is a vibrant and joyful collection of new works by Rosa Fedele.
Unconstrained by conventional expectations Fedele’s work is genre-defying; slipping seamlessly between traditional portraiture and still life to vintage cars, Italian scooters and romantic beauties from the silver screen.
DREAM MACHINES will take you on a heartwarming and nostalgic ride through the countryside in your favourite classic convertible, Italian silk scarf billowing in the breeze and faithful hound by your side.

Quest for Life Self-Care workshop
Quest for Life workshop for Southern Highlands communities
2020 presented challenges in so many unexpected ways. Way back in 2019 when we thought drought and bushfires were all we could take, 2020 lifted the hurdle even higher with quite callous disregard to the extremes of nature many were already experiencing. Many people are hoping that 2021 will surely be better than the year just passed.
Quest’s programs teach us that we really need to feel peace right now, in this time, even in the moment.
Thanks to a generous ClubsGrant from Mittagong RSL and Moss Vale Services Club, we’re able to offer a series of 3 workshops at NO CHARGE for local residents of the Southern Highlands.
If you’d like to regain emotional stability, take control of your response to life’s challenges, and find ways to create inner peace, we hope you can join us for the 3rd of these workshops.
Thursday 29 April, 9.30am-12.30pm: Margie Braunstein will facilitate Self-Care at the Moss Vale Services Club.
