Lorne Sculpture Biennale – Day trip

- Cultural Life series

Hosted by:

March 20, 2016 @ 7:00 pm - March 21, 2016 @ 5:00 am

Lorne Sculpture Biennale is a unique event. Conducted on public land in a natural outdoor setting along Lorne’s magnificent foreshore, it brings the general public free access to 35 significant works of Sculpture on the outstanding Sculpture Trail. In addition, there is a Small Sculpture Exhibition of 40 works; a Maquettes Exhibition which features models of all the major Sculpture Trail works: Sculpturscape in which artists come to Lorne every weekend during the event allowing the public to see sculptures being built in front of their eyes – we believe this to be a global exclusive; innovative Performance Art; and a range of other free Sculpture related events.

Join us on our bus to Lorne and be guided  by Lorne Sculpture Biennale’s highly regarded curator, Julie Collins, and its President, Peter Lamell (familiar to you from the Melbourne Forum). We will have lunch with a glass of wine at picturesque Qdos Gallery where we will be hosted by its owner and Lorne Sculpture Biennale founder, Graeme Wilkie. Then some free time to explore Lorne and perhaps buy a few sculptures before we head off back to Melbourne.
