Visit historic Retford Park to browse a diverse exhibition of ceramics by a Southern Highlands collective.

From hand-built sculptural artworks to skilfully thrown pots, the diversity of pieces exhibited reflects a variety of styles, colours and glazing techniques used by the 15 ceramicists.

These unique, hand-made pieces created by local artists make beautiful keepsakes or gifts.

All artworks will be for sale. A percentage of all sales goes towards supporting the work of the National Trust (NSW).
