ARCADIAN ARTISTS OPEN STUDIO WEEKEND
8th - 9th November 2008

This annual art trail which has being running since 1988 sees local artists open their private studios to the public for one weekend only in November. Visitors are given the exclusive opportunity to view & purchase unique artworks directly from their creators. The works available include such items as paintings, pottery, textiles, sculpture, ceramics, glass, jewellery, leather & timber work. A picturesque rural drive links the open studios. Maps including artist profiles will be available from the Galston Village Shops, the Tourist Information Centre on Old Northern Road, Dural, & the Hornsby Visitor Information Centre, closer to the event. It's a great family/friends' day out & there is something to suit everyone's artistic desire!
