Gallery Open 11:30am to 4:30pm

Weekends, Australia Day, Labour Day and the Monday after Easter

Australia Day Celebrations 28 January


In 2012 Australia Day activities included artists' demonstrations in the courtyard, self guided walks of Herring Island (free brochures/maps available from the gallery), one guided tour, perfect weather and the perfect opportunity for a picnic in treasured bushland. Hundreds of people enjoyed a great day on the island.

We hope to repeat this performance in 2013 - particularly by organising perfect weather in spite of Melbourne's weather on steroids performance.


In addition to the artists demonstrations in the courtyard, 2013 will see artist Bridget Nicholson working in a quiet part of the island on her Touch This Earth Lightly project. For more information see http://www.touchthisearthlightly.com/

Herring Island Summer Arts Festival thanks the Australia Day Committee (Victoria) for their support for our Australia Day program.
