Our journey has been filled with significant milestones. In addition to curating four regional exhibitions that have showcased incredible Australian sculptures and artists, we've gifted nine public sculptures to the Shire of Dungog.
A key focus of Sculpture on the Farm is to boost tourism in the area, and we’re excited to be developing a Sculpture Trail that will connect Dungog Common Recreational Reserve to the town’s main street, further establishing Dungog as a vibrant cultural hub. With each Biennale, we look forward to growing this collection and continuing to make a lasting impact on the community.
These achievements reflect our commitment to fostering creativity, enhancing tourism, and building strong connections between art and community. Each step forward reinforces our dedication to making contemporary sculpture accessible and celebrated in our region.
Below are sculptural works of six Australian sculptors acquired as part of this initiative.
