We’ve got a very creative, as well as capable team at Bulleen Art & Garden. You can see this at Bulleen Art & Garden -the ideas they have; how they help solve your garden or design problems; creative displays; innovative products; how they help you learn in the garden classes or bring out your own creativity in art workshops.

But they also have a life outside Bulleen Art & Garden and this exhibition  will  showcase some of their other creative talents, which  may not be so obvious from their daily work .

We have previously featured their work in the Bolin Bolin Gallery – and it is time to turn the spotlight on them again.

Watch this space for more images of this year’s exhibition.

The Bolin Bolin Gallery at Bulleen Art  & Garden,
