The TOP 10 BEST Arts & Crafts in Wards River NSW

Gloucester's new art precinct is now open: a place to meet, learn new skills and find quality handmade items. We're a group of creatives who have turned Gloucester's old garden centre into a beautiful new space to showcase talented local artists and artisans. You'll be amazed by the quality and variety in our retail gallery: artwork, jewellery, lace, socks, soaps, preserves, cards, toys, macrame... all handmade by locals. While you're there you might see a workshop in progress or peek over an artist's shoulder while they work. The kids can entertain themselves with timeless games: playing quoits or battle blocks or drawing on the easel. Then you can relax in our beautiful outdoor space. You might be lucky enough to catch a local musician playing on our stage. You never know what you might find at Gloucester Creatives
