There are vacancies for workshop events during the exhibition – if anyone is interested in conducting a workshop/s, please contact Marian asap on 0412 109 129 to discuss possible arrangements. As the title suggests, the sculpture show’s theme is a journey through landscape, nature, the Australian bush and its inherent profoundness, quirkiness, characters, as well as the emotion and celebration all that inspires.
Within the Land – Sculpture Show at Acheron continues to be an exciting annual event and encourages established and emerging artists and sculptors from across Australia to display their work/s and engage with other artists and a diverse, interested community. Local, interstate and indigenous artists are warmly welcomed to participate as this is a unique opportunity to exhibit work in a renowned garden, surrounded by extensive farm and bushland along the Goulburn River.
Artist and Show Director, Marian Rennie, has had family connections to this land at Acheron since the 1860’s. Marian works with Christine Challen of Little River Wines, Taggerty and committed volunteers who share her
vision to provide a stimulating venue for artists to display and sell their works and to provide the public with the opportunity to enjoy those endeavours in a beautiful setting.
