Exhibition of Works
Prior to Market Day at the BMI Simone Reid will display a selection of her works in the library. Commission earned for works offered for sale during the exhibition will support Our Arts and Cultural Activities and the maintenance of Our Heritage Collection.
‘All treasures are cheerfully handmade with my passion for small makings and low waste. Created in Ballarat, Victoria. Everything you see here has a nostalgic, re-purposed and vintage vibe. No two products found here are alike’
This display will only be open during normal Library operating hours (i.e. Monday to Friday 10am – 4pm | Saturday 9.30am to 12noon). We will also be open on Market Day Sunday 20 March until 2pm.
