And what better place to prepare, than soaking up the autumn sunshine in the gardens of their Gallery in Tea Gardens.

‘One Size Fits All’, is the thought-provoking theme of this year’s exhibition, which is being held at the artists’ new home on Marine Drive.

“The exhibition opens at The Gallery on Friday 8 June at 5pm,” Trevor Cook, President of GIG said.

“We invite you to attend, meet our artists, view their latest works and enjoy a complimentary drink and nibble.”

“During the proceedings Maitland Regional Art Gallery’s Curator, Kim Blunt, will reveal the winning artwork following a day of concerted judging.”

And just like the Archibalds, there’s also a people’s choice award.

“Throughout the June long weekend visitors to The Gallery can cast their vote for their favourite artwork,” Trevor said.

The Winter Warmer exhibition will be on display from Saturday 10 June for a limited time, and entry is free.

It’s been a big year for the Galleries in the Garden, finally having a place to call home and thousands of visitors enjoying the experience as well.
