Artists from the Clarence Valley and nearby regions will present and demonstrate their art. Blacksmiths, sculptors, painters and woodworkers, printmakers, jewellers, textile artists and photographers will make for great viewing and particularly engaging conversations for our guests.

Delicious regional beef and sausages as well as the vegetarian and vegan patties will be barbequed for a fresh lunch. Espresso coffee, homemade cakes and slices are on sale at the Lemonade Stall.

The magic of the High Tea is taking place in three sittings, with homemade savoury and sweet delights. Fine wines from the Granite Belt and New England, cool Coopers beers and refreshing soft drinks will be on offer at the pay bar.

Fun and free children art activities are being held in two sessions creating artworks for a competition to win art materials.

Art in the Paddock is presented as a fundraiser by The Gallery Foundation. And as ever a great raffle will be run on the day.
