The Lester Collective Members will attend an exclusive event at one of Perth’s best-kept secrets, the stunning Club Lounge at The Heritage Collective and hear from its recently appointed Artist in Residence, Elle Campbell.

Enjoy a relaxed evening overlooking the Indian Ocean, complete with live drawing by our Finalists Alumni and drinks and canapés as we celebrate the start of a new year together.

Set along the iconic Cottesloe coastline, The Heritage Collective comprises three beautifully restored Federation-era buildings offering sweeping views from Fremantle to Scarborough. A recent major redevelopment has sensitively blended these heritage details with refined contemporary design, creating elegant spaces including the Club Lounge, boardroom, 40-seat cinema, landscaped gardens and onsite catering; all honouring the site’s rich past while embracing modern coastal sophistication.

Western Australian artist and current Artist in Residence, Elle Campbell, brings a vibrant and intuitive practice shaped by her upbringing on a farm in Dandaragan, where the sweeping coastal plains forged her deep connection with landscape and colour. Influenced by time living overseas and studies in Fashion and Textile Design, Elle’s work is characterised by bold palettes, fluid lines and expressive abstractions on silk and linen. Her practice is both emotional and instinctive – an exploration of colour, texture and movement that imbues each artwork with authenticity, energy and a strong sense of place.
