Hanging Rock Winery has been adorned with sculptures for the sixth annual Art in the Vines sculpture exhibition.

Located at 88 Jim Road, Newham, the exhibition is open free to the public seven days a week from 10am to 5pm, until April 30. It is closed on Christmas Day and Good Friday.

The exhibition kicked off on October 14, with a long lunch and award ceremony, where Kerry Cannon was awarded the inaugural Hanging Rock Sculpture Award for his sculpture, The Bower Girl.

More than 26 renowned local and national artists contributed sculptures which thrill, mesmerise, excite and intrigue visitors.

Curator Malcolm Thomson returned for his sixth year and sought sculptures covering a number of styles, materials and origins.

Mr Thomson encouraged everyone to think about how artists entertain people and said it’s important to show support.

Guided wine tastings and food are also available at the winery.
