Be inspired by the spirit of creativity which exists in this delightful gallery.

Fine examples of paintings by gifted artists, beautiful quilts and silk hangings line the walls. Exquisite needlework embellishes all sorts of useful articles; samples of the functional and decorative work of potters adorn the shelves.

Fairy costumes to delight any small girl and locally handmade gifts from members of Caloundra Arts Centre are finding their way onto our walls.
