The Association of Sculptors of Victoria is an inclusive, not-for-profit collective of contemporary artists whose purpose is to inspire,stimulate and advance the appreciation, creation, and exploration of three-dimensional art in society.

Opportunities to Exhibit, See and Do...

This section has some great information... must see....

A quick heads up!
Could all sculptors please check their profile pages - when the website was reset recently the "works to commission" and "runs classes" options were set to the default of NO. In order to fix this could you email membership@sculptorsvictoria.asn.au with your correct information and we’ll gradually get the system in order. It is worth checking from time to time - we only found out this time because we had an inquiry from the public.

We’ve received an email from http://www.tourismbowen.com.au/ regarding an under water sculpture project - all seven pages of document:

Underwater Sculpture Opportunity


A great opportunity is available for sculptors to design and sculpt what is expected to be a very significant and renown sculpture to be located underwater just off the beach in Bowen Qld Australia in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park.

Warm Bowen regards,

EXHIBITION OPPORTUNITY!


I have been asked to invite sculptors to show their interest in exhibiting in a new sculpture gallery on the Mornington Peninsula. As a lifelong sculptor and founding member of the ASV I believe this Gallery will provide a new body of interest for sculptors to enjoy and profit by.

Please contact Craig Forster to discuss putting your images etc. forward to the gallery.
