VCE Season of Excellence
VCE Season of Excellence 2010
Dates have been confirmed for the 2010 VCE Season of Excellence with students displaying their work at exhibitions, concerts and film screenings across Melbourne.
The Season commences with Top Class Sound (the first of eleven concerts) at the Melbourne Recital Centre on Friday 26 February.
The official opening of the Season will take place on Tuesday 2 March with the launch of Top Screen at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image.
Meanwhile the Top Designs exhibition will mark its tenth year at the Melbourne Museum from Saturday 27 March. During the last ten years more than 1000 students, representing schools across the State, have displayed their work at the Museum during Top Designs exhibitions and Season staff have initiated a project to find past exhibitors who may be currently working successfully in the fields they presented at Top Designs. Plans are evolving to focus on a number of past exhibitors and their current work in some way.
Details are eagerly sought so that past exhibitors can be contacted. If teachers are aware of any past students who may be interested in being involved please ask them to contact the Season via the email: seasonofexcellence@edumail.vic.gov.au
The second of the Season annual exhibitions, Top Arts, opens at the Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia on Thursday 1 April.

Venue bookings information is listed on the event program PDF under each event on the VCE Season of Excellence Events 2010 page. Programs will be sent to schools in the first week of Term 1.
