Group Information
The Combined Art Societies of Sydney (CASS) is run by a small group of volunteers who are dedicated and enthusiastic Art Society members.
Their aim is to unite and strengthen the standing of art societies in the community, to gain greater recognition for art societies and to encourage a standard of excellence among individual artists within their societies. CASS currently has fourteen member societies.

Events
Exhibitions
CASS usually hold 3 main events throughout the year.
Their annual event; "ART OF SYDNEY AWARDS EXHIBITION" is over the Australia Day long weekend in January and held in Darling Harbour - at the Australian Maritime Museum - The Terrace Room. This exhibition showcases hundreds of artworks from 14 art societies throughout the wider Sydney Basin including the Bowral and Southern Highlands districts.
The above Annual event for 2020 was again a great success, but unfortunately, due to COVID-19 restrictions, further events scheduled for the remainder of the year have been cancelled. These events included 'Art in the Mountains Exhibition' in August, 'Art Direct Open Studios' in September and 'Art at the Top' workshops in October.
But as members of CASS are still keen to exhibit their work, there will soon be an ONLINE Exhibition.
Further details on this event will be advised very soon.
Tuition
Workshops
CASS organises many art workshops throughout the year which feature tutors from all over Australia and New Zealand.
