Dear Artists and Art Lovers,
This correspondence is to advise that, at the Rotary Club of Clare Meeting on March 19th, 2026, the decision and subsequent resolution was carried – That the Club not proceed with the Clare Art Show for 2026.
This decision resulted from in-depth discussion and debate taking into account the current economic climate and the impact this is having on life today, including:
- escalating price of fuel,
- increasing cost-of-living expense,
- the likely downturn in sales of artwork as experienced in 2025.
Artists who have already entered will receive a full refund of their submission fees.
Your continuing artistic contributions to the Clare Art Show and the Rotary Club of Clare is greatly valued and the ongoing support and encouragement is deeply appreciated.
Thank you for your understanding.
Yours sincerely
Graham Goode
Director
Rotary Club of Clare, Art Show Committee
