Strathbogie Shire Council’s, Artbox Gallery is proud to present ‘Grounded’, a captivating group exhibition that explores the theme of growth, connection, and the grounding presence of nature.
Situated in Jubilee Park, Avenel from 30 September – 27 October this exhibition is featuring four accomplished local artists.
The show invites viewers to reflect on the quiet power of fungi, small plants, rocks, and water—and the emotional resonance of being “grounded” in place and community.
This is a rare opportunity to experience the work of four distinct artistic voices united by a shared reverence for nature and place.
Strathbogie Shire Mayor Claire Ewart-Kennedy welcomed the exhibition, saying: “Grounded is a wonderful celebration of our region’s natural beauty and artistic talent.
