Members (and prospective members) are reminded that the Annual General Meeting of the Paluma & District Community Association Inc. will be held on: Saturday April 20th, 2019 at 5pm in the Community Hall.
Nominations are open for all Executive Committee positions.
Please attend and support our village community association.
As a consequence of the closure of the upper Range Road to non-local traffic, the PDCA has decided that that Easter Sunday Markets will not be held this year. We regret having to make this decision and hope that the road will soon be fully open to all traffic.
On Friday evening 5th April Lynn & Les Hyland visited the TYTO Gallery in Ingham for the opening of their new exhibition “Ecologica”, comprising works by three artists : Heather Byrne [Pastel] ; Linda Bates [Clay] and, from Paluma, Sarah Swan [Glass]. Sarah has had a table at the Paluma Markets and her lead-light work is really spectacular. She had a great many pieces on display, in particular, her “Seahorses” took this writer’s fancy.
Sarah owns 18 Mt Spec Rd, and, following the death of Roy Mackay, has also purchased 77 Mt Spec Rd. which she intends to transform into a gallery displaying her work. This she tells us, is a work already in progress.
The “Ecologica” exhibition is open until May 5th 2019 and if you can, do make an effort to see it – time very well spent. TYTO Gallery is open from 10.00 hrs to 16.00 hrs.
Good morning,
Hope you are starting to dry out a little up there. We have a school holiday activity on the 11th of April, if you would like to share if there are any younger members of your community.
We enjoy checking out your webpage and try to keep up to date with any events you have, so as we can share to Rollingstone and surrounds.
Attached is some information about a Circus Acrobat group that will be held at Rollingstone Community Centre next week. Please feel free to share.
Kindest regards,
Mark Eberle

One of Paluma’s very own artists, Sarah Swan will join two of her esteemed artistic colleagues, Heather Byrne and Linda Bates, to present the upcoming ‘Ecologica’ Exhibition at the TYTO Regional Art Gallery in Ingham.
The ‘Ecologica’ Exhibition will run from 5 April to 5 May with opening hours of 10 am to 4 pm daily. Entry to the Exhibition is free of charge and all are welcome.
Sarah invites her Paluma friends and family to join her at the Exhibition Opening on Friday 5 April at 6.30 pm.
Information on the Exhibition is outlined below:-
‘Ecologica’ is the result of the collaboration between three artists who are passionate about the flora and fauna of our beautiful planet. We live surrounded by outstanding landscapes. From the brilliant ochres of the desert, to the lush greens of the tropical rainforest there are more colours around us than our eyes are capable of seeing. ‘Ecologica’ has given us, as artists, the chance to explore these landscapes through our chosen media. Our work is inspired by the life nurtured in our chosen landscapes from the clean tang of saltwater, through the expectant hush of a woodland clearing.

St. Patrick’s Day is on March 17th, but in Paluma we will celebrate it on Saturday the 16th March.
In view of the afternoon tea in honour of Roy Mackay that same day, we will start at 7 PM this year instead of 6.30 PM, allowing time for participants to both events to prepare a dish to share in the usual fashion. Yes, potatoes are allowed!
The bar will be open and there will be a limited stock of Uncle Arthur’s beverage – the founder of Guinness Brewery was Arthur Guinness. If you have any Irish jokes to share do bring them along and there will be a quiz about Ireland [No Googling Allowed!!!!!!]. So, sharpen your brains about things Irish. And wear something green !
