Stroll through the grounds, taking in the breathtaking artwork that harmoniously interacts with the scenic surroundings. Hanging Rock Winery’s annual sculpture exhibition- Art in the Vines is opens Saturday 14 October through to 30 April 2024.

Art in the Vines is now in its 6^th year and continues to grow in popularity year after year, with people travelling from all over Victoria to see it. This isn’t just any old art show. Curator, Malcolm Thomson has sought out sculptures from some of Australia’s best-known sculpture artists alongside some very exciting up-and-coming artists. These sculptures and their creators have been selected to make sure there is a great mix of works covering a number of styles, materials and origins.

Macedon Ranges, Hepburn and Bendigo Shires are home to some of Australia’s most talented sculptors. Over the years we have been able to exhibit many of these such as Tim Jones, Geoffrey Barlett, Jock Clutterbuck, Brigit Heller, Anton Hasell, Simon Normand, Geoffrey Ricardo, Mela Cooke, Matt Harding, Frederick White and many others. We’re also lucky enough to exhibit interstate artist Steven Glassborrow and international artists, Andreas Buisman and Kerry Canon.

This year we are excited to introduce the HRWS Award to be judged by Dan Wollmering, Phd, former Senior Lecturer in Sculpture from Monash University. To be announced at the Long Lunch, at the opening of the exhibition on Saturday 14^th October. The Award will be an addition to this unique exhibition being developed by the Ellis Family.
