The Hive Gallery in Ocean Grove, established in 2016, is an exciting arts space for the Bellarine Peninsula region.
Downstairs is the exclusive home of Willie Wildlife Sculptures. Known particularly for his bronze birdbaths, the full range of his freestanding, nature and bird inspired sculptures are also exhibited. Will Wilson's work is well known with more than 25 years' experience sculpting in bronze, and annual exhibitions at the Chelsea Flower Show in the United Kingdom for 11 years. This included 2019, when he had the great honour of meeting Her Royal Highness, The Queen.
Upstairs features a growing collection of over 35 carefully selected Australian artists, with a greater local focus. Both emerging and experienced artists feature, with work including paintings, sculptures, ceramics and handcrafted furniture. The natural world features strongly within the large, light-filled space that overlooks the treetops of the local woodland reserve. Each month, the middle space features a carefully curated changing exhibition, so there is always something new to see.
After you have finished viewing the artwork, there is an on-site cafe, open Monday to Saturday for refreshments.
