Jane Jordan - Painter and Fluid Artist in her studio
On Melbourne Cup Weekend (2nd + 3rd November), you and your family are invited to explore the stunning artworks of 26 talented artists and artisans in Mansfield Shire's finest studios!
The Mansfield Open Studio Trail (MOST) returns in 2024 with a jam-packed showcase of exhibitions and demonstrations for all to enjoy.
Ceramicist and artist Fiona Wood
This year's trail promises a rich tapestry of artistic expression, featuring a diverse range of mediums including steel sculpture, jewellery, painting, pottery, ceramic art, and textiles.
Many of the open studios are not usually open to the public, so this is a unique opportunity to meet artists and artisans, learn about their techniques and what inspires them, explore their working environments, and purchase original works directly from the creators.
