The Northern Illawarra region has long been known for its art.
Many fine artists have gravitated to the area due to its natural beauty, from the bush of the Royal and Dharawal National Parks to the magnificence of the landscape of the Illawarra Escarpment all surrounded by the Pacific Ocean.
Come immerse yourself in the arts. Following the success of the initial art trail, artists will be holding an art trail and opening their studios for two days.
Follow the beautiful route between the coast and escarpment from Thirroul past the beautiful beaches and over the famous Seacliff Bridge to Helensburgh.
The artists will be showing a wonderful range of arts, ranging from abstract to realism in oils, acrylics and watercolours, prints, photography, miniatures, pottery and ceramics. Enjoy the excellent wares provided by the numerous fine-quality cafes, restaurants, and hotels as you wander between the studios.
Please refer to the website or the image of the brochure for the list of artists and the addresses of their studios.
