Prepare for a great day full of sand, sun and sculpture – finishing with a stunning sunset! Bring your bathers for a dip.

Loom of the Land brings together three interconnected bodies of work from artist Brad Rimmer’s wheatbelt trilogy in a major survey exhibition. Silence (2009), Nature Boy (2019), and Nowhere Near (2023) have been created over two decades during Rimmer’s return journeys to the Wheatbelt region of Western Australia, the landscape of his youth. Rimmer’s work captures the Wheatbelt’s landscapes and communities with sensitivity and depth.

As we won’t know what films are screening or the times, you will have to book and we will ring you prior to the date. The bus will leave Mundaring or you can meet us there.

Thania Petersen is deeply informed by the histories of the Indian Ocean and Trans-Oceanic memory. As an African Creole artist, she seeks to retell and reclaim histories and cultural memory. Tracing the migration of Sufi music and ritual, Petersen’s large-scale olfactory installation Rampies Sny and film JAWAP – an Australian premiere – fill the galleries with smell, sound and sumptuous imagery.

Mark your diary, sculpture at bathers is set to transform Bathers Beach with awe-inspiring displays from talented local artists. Visit WA’s sculpture exhibition by the beach featuring only WA sculpture with a diverse range of established to emerging sculptors from across the state. There are lots of cafes etc to suit your taste!!

It’s not played for sheep stations but a friendly game of Rummykub (played to the rules though)! Come and join us or learn how to play. Afternoon tea included

The City of Melville has just launched Murals of Canning Bridge , inviting locals and visitors to take a self-guided art walk through the precinct. The trail lets you explore at your own pace — with plenty of opportunities to stop for a coffee, a riverside stroll, or a bite to eat along the way. Each mural reflects a different story, capturing the unique spirit of Canning Bridge while adding a burst of creativity to its streets. From bold contemporary designs to intricate storytelling pieces, the trail transforms everyday walls into an open-air gallery.
