What people said in 2011
-
The capacity of the human mind to perceive, to reason and to create is astounding yet most of us take it for granted every day. I encourage Sydneysiders to get involved with this exciting event celebrating the endless potential of our grey matter.
-
Silvia and Relmi you are to be congratulated on your bold and innovative BrainArt Exhibition. Lee-Ann and I really enjoyed presenting our session on neuroscience and education. It is always great to be able to share success stories that are changing lives in the school education system. Thanks for allowing us to do this. Great concept you really are making a difference. Keep up the great work!
-
Congratulations on a wonderful and unique event. I got the feeling that people really responded and it touched on something in the air. You should make it an annual event. Very happy with the painting and yes, Julie did fantastically well.
-
Congratulations to you and the team. I am sure it was a great experience and I am so glad that many people have been exposed to something quite special and unique.

On Friday night we headed down to Global Gallery to support our friends at About my Brain at the Brain Art Exhibition and were blown away by the quality of the work and awesomeness of the people. We handed out lots of Artline pens and had some great chats. Hi to all our new fans. Keep us updated on other events to attend.

I know I’ve already said this a million times but I’m truly thankful and amazed that I could be part of this exhibition. Look forward to next year, new ideas, new creations. The exhibition standard will go to a whole other level! Inspiration come... Thanks again.

Thank you so much for a great competition. I’m sure everyone had lots of fun, ‘cause I know I did. It was a while since I had been excited about anything. My mouth has been running non-stop at my Writer’s Club about this event, so you might get an influx of people next year entering the competition. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks for all your efforts. It was awesome.
The support and dedication of our wonderful friends, colleagues and the community is what makes this project what it is. Thank you to our invaluable team who help us make this a reality.

This year we have chosen Verge Gallery as a venue. It is an exciting addition to the University of Sydney campus, housing the best in unique and rousing student art. The Gallery was opened by the University of Sydney Union (USU) in 2009, and holds regular exhibitions, showcasing the vibrant burgeoning student art scene in Sydney.
The BrainArt Exhibition is kindly endorsed and supported by a range of business partners
and endorsers. Thank you to all those individuals and organizations who believed in our vision and supported the first exhibition in 2011. We are truly grateful.
We are now on the search for more sponsors, partners and endorsers to help us continue to fund and promote the
2012 BrainArt Exhibition and BrainArt Awards. There are a number of ways in which organisations can enhance their brand awareness and reach new audiences through one off or ongoing sponsorship opportunities.
