The much anticipated second Bellingen Shire Arts Trail Weekend is back, bringing a vibrant celebration of creativity to the region. The Bellingen Shire Arts Trail Weekend presents a wonderful opportunity to explore the beautiful Bellingen Shire whilst meeting and talking to the creative people who make the Shire such an inspiring place. This year’s trail presents a captivating journey through 37 open studios, galleries and shared spaces, showcasing the diverse talents of over 70 local artists and craftspeople. From Dundurrabin and Dorrigo, down to Bellingen and Raleigh, and on to the coast to Urunga and Hungry Head, artists will open their doors for a glimpse into their artistic processes. Visitors have the opportunity to discover emerging talents, meet established artists, and buy directly from the source.
