Ku-ring-gai Sculpture Trail joins Eco Festival
The Sculpture Trail is a celebration of sustainable art. It showcases works made exclusively from recycled materials, encouraging both Artist and Observer to delve into the realm of eco-consciousness. This year’s Ku-ring-gai Sculpture Trail also forms part of Ku-ring-gai's Eco Festival, an event that underscores the importance of mindful living and environmental management.
The trail will showcase the skill and imagination of both renowned artists and emerging talent from across Ku-ring-gai. This year, Artists are invited to create on-theme sculptures to be displayed outdoors at the Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden in St Ives from September 1 through to October 7. And everyone is welcome!
