Bring a packed lunch and a fold up chair.
Enjoy meeting Tim and glass artist Rob Hayley. There is so much to see and learn. Tim has a passion for steel and a talent for repurposing. This should be an inspiring and creative adventure to their studios.

Annual & Awards Exhibition
Association of Sculptors of Victoria
A few changes for this year as we are not sharing with painters and the exhibition will run for two weeks rather than three. This means we will have unlimited wall space for those of you who like to make pieces that can be hung but please think about how much pieces weigh and have more than one hanging line if necessary.
