Briagolong Art Gallery introduced its first exhibition for 2023: Embracing the Eucalypt.

Friends and former colleagues, Lesley Duxbury and Ruth Johnstone work and live amongst eucalypts. Lesley documents and celebrates towering forest redeem survivors in Briagolong and environs, while Ruth – whose studio in the north-east highlands of Victoria is enveloped by native forest – commemorates the scars of logging and bushfires with leafy garlands and circular motifs.

The exhibition will opened on Saturday, February 18 from 2pm.

Following its opening, Embracing the Eucalypt will be open for public viewing on Saturdays and Sunday between 11am and 4pm.
