The old groom’s cottage at Bodalla circa 1875 has housed this artists’ cooperative for 7 years. Using history as a reference point to spark the creative journey, Nest Artists present an exhibition for the River of Art festival 2019.

With the architecture, crafts, textiles, buildings, families, nature, art, food, transport and even the word “layers” for inspiration, the artists evoke memories of times and people gone by in the old cottage with a variety of mediums including fibre, paint, mosaic, leather and vintage textiles.

The exhibition begins Friday 17 May through to Monday 27 May and works can be taken as sold so get in quick for a look. The artists will continue to add items during the festival as they are inspired.

The exhibition is open in our usual shop hours , daily from 10am until 4pm .

Drawn from artists around the Eurobodalla coast and beyond this committed group provide an outlet to raise awareness and appreciation of, and access to, arts and crafts including wearable art in our local area through the promotion, display and sale of members work.

The Artisans Nest gallery enables the collaboration and inspiration of creative ideas between members and strives to distribute information for the cultural benefit of visitors and members of the local community.
