The BEST Arts & Crafts in Highfields QLD

The Wilsonton Community Art Gallery was established in response to the feedback received from our local community, indicating a significant demand for a community-focused art space. The existing large galleries in Toowoomba primarily catered to professional artists with large exhibitions, leaving a gap for local artists and emerging talent. In 2014, a group of dedicated volunteers from the Heights Community Centre joined forces with the cooperation of the Wilsonton Shopping Centre to create a non-profit, volunteer-run art gallery right within the shopping center. This collaboration allowed the Wilsonton Community Art Gallery to come to life, providing a platform for artists of all backgrounds to showcase their work and enrich the cultural landscape of our community.

Chain Reaction Qld started out as a hobby, not intended as a business at all. With interests in beaded jewellery and silversmithing as a hobby I was looking to source different suppliers for variety and pricing that wasn't currently available. Often friends dropping in for a coffee with similar interest would ask - Do you have a spare strand of these beads? Do you think you could find these for me? Others would see my creations and over the years many custom pieces have been admired and sold from the kitchen bench! Lol! From there it just got busier, we now stock everything from card making and scrapbooking, embellishments to quilling papers, all beading supplies with beads by the strand and the gram, sterling silver and silversmithing supplies.... hence the name Chain Reaction!! Our foundation is to make hobby crafts like beading, resin, card making and even silversmithing affordable and enjoyable to all.
