Living in the country is a different sort of life with its unique challenges and rewards.
How do you build a great log fire? Get chickens to lay? …How do you get your dreams down on paper?
Do you look in your own backyard for inspiration… or do you ignore the landscape and delve inside?
Art on the Granite Belt ricochets off the sunbeaten granite rocks and throws up an eclectic collection of interesting art works - shown in art outlets nation wide and featured prominently in the Stanthorpe Regional Art Gallery.
Whatever is in the water, the creative juices bubble up from everywhere here. Multicultural traditions expressed in song and dance in various groups and festivals, reinforce the complexity and broader culture of what makes up the Granite Belt community.
All artists and art outlets mentioned in this Guide are certain to surprise you with ingenuity and skill. Want something amazing to take home to that someone who has everything? Find it here on the Granite Belt.
