Tutti Arts

Tutti Arts is South Australia's only multi-arts organisation where artists with a learning disability create
visual art, theatre, music, film, new media and installations for a growing local and international audience.

RC Kidman Park’s connection with Tutti Arts started
when one of its club members attended an event in
2020, which featured a choir from Tutti Arts. After
meeting with the CEO and a club visit to the
performing studio, a project was devised to help.

The club supplied a number of computers and provided
solar panels. With the assistance of a District Grant.
The computers were handed over at a Rotary
presentation last December and the solar panels
were installed in early January 2021.

MEET YOUR NEIGHBOUR - THE ROTARY CLUB OF ENCOUNTER BAY

The Rotary Club of Encounter Bay was chartered on 15th September 1979 with the help of the Rotary Club
of Victor Harbor.

The late Wally Bradley was elected as our first President and remained an active member for many years.
Twenty-nine members were inducted at the Charter dinner.
Club numbers have fluctuated between 23 and 55 over this time with our current membership at 30.
For many years our major fundraiser was ‘the Boat Raffle’. This project was very labour intensive but created
a good boost to our funds on an annual basis.

In 2014, the Alexandrina Council offered the club the management of the Pt Elliot and Goolwa Wharf
Markets. Since that time, this project has been our major fundraiser and has allowed us to support many
local and overseas projects. Managing markets creates a very heavy work load on our members. Almost
everyone in the club takes a role to help maintain the success of these busy markets which are held 4 times
a month with extra markets in December and 10 markets in January. We are currently developing our
‘Friends of Rotary’ program to encourage our friends to help us manage this project.

Come and visit our markets when visiting the South Coast. Markets are held on the 1st and 3rd Saturday
(Pt Elliot) and 1st and 3rd Sunday (Goolwa Wharf)
