Weddin Landcare have launched their Wonderful Wattles exhibition on Friday, 25 July with a with a great turnout of local artists and community members.
The exhibition celebrates the colour, vibrancy, diversity and important ecological value that wattles add to local landscapes and will have an array of artworks, sculptures, ceramics, and memorabilia on display.
Weddin Landcare's Claire Diprose said the launch was wonderful and amazing to see so many people from the community interested and engaged about the exhibition.
With artwork sourced from around 30 artists from the region and further afield including the Rose Street Gallery, Ms Diprose said there were no two artworks the same, despite the subject matter being the same.
Ms Diprose said the people who helped run the event were very talented and helped the exhibition launch come together amazingly.
