What a Monday evening we had at Take Two! On 30 June 2025, we all gathered for the Time Well Spent virtual awards ceremony... and what a moving and joyful celebration it was!
Our Time Well Spent exhibition and art prize celebrates five wonderful years of Fibre Arts Take Two. Five years of world-class online courses. Five years of watching our students grow, create, and connect.
Congratulations again to the prize-winners and all 50 finalists, and a heartfelt thank you to everyone who submitted, attended, and supported this exhibition. We are so grateful for you!
