******************************
We would like to let you and the sculpture community know about a free talk and tour by author Barbara Lemon who will discuss her book: ‘A Way with the Fairies’.
We thought this might be of interest as the book is based on the previously unpublished autobiography of modernist sculptor, Ola Cohn, creator of the beloved Fairies’ Tree in Melbourne’s Fitzroy Gardens.
See the following link for more information:

Please feel free to forward this on to your colleagues, friends and the sculpture community.
Kind regards

With 47 entries, 11 sales so far to the value of a tad over $15000 plus cash prizes of $1000, the show has been a great success with sculptors and the very large number of visitors. Major winners are: Don Barrett: Baw Baw Shire Acquisition, David Doyle: Nangara and Jindivick Community Garden Acquisitions, Megan Puls: Best use of Traditional Materials, Pimpisa Tinpalit: Best Use of New Materials
The show will be on again next year from May 9 to 24th, and the travelling component will include periods on Mt Baw Baw and Wonthaggi in South Gippsland.
The show has a Facebook page www.facebook.com/jindivicksculpture which has attracted high levels of comment and interaction, and expanded the reach of the show to an additional 5000 people.
