A day to celebrate art at Gulf Station and an opportunity for visitors to see the unique buildings and ground through the eyes of various local and regional artists.

Experience a day of artistic inspiration at Gulf Station, where local and regional artists will bring the historic farm to life through their unique interpretations. As they work en plein air, using a variety of mediums, visitors can watch their artworks evolve against the backdrop of this beautifully preserved 19th-century farm.

Wander through the homestead, old schoolhouse, and heritage outbuildings, all constructed using traditional techniques, and imagine life on a self-sufficient colonial farm. Take a guided tour at 11:30 am or explore at your own pace, meeting the resident Clydesdales, sheep, and farm animals along the way.

Pack a picnic and enjoy a relaxing day on the lawn as art, history, and nature come together in this extraordinary setting.

Proceeds from the day support the National Trust and its efforts in preserving Victoria’s heritage.

This event is part of the Australian Heritage Festival (Victoria)
