Exhibition Opportunity
We recently received this email. Members should investigate this opportunity for themselves We have recently purchased Yuulong Lavender Estate 15min from Ballarat Victoria and are looking for artists who would like to exhibit their work at this well known tourist location. We are upgrading the gardens and cafe at present and will re-open in August. The gardens would lend themselves nicely to show off your artists pieces either for show and recognition or for sale with no added commission or fees from us. If you have any artists that would like to take advantage of this offer please let me know.
Thanks
