Sunday 19th March 2023 Moongate Studio
Our first PD session for this year was excellent! Jan and Geo Francis kindly opened their ‘Moongate’ studio/home (Bellbrae) to share their stories, art and insight. We had a presentation in their studio Gallery, followed by the opportunity to view and discuss Geo’s current sculptural work in progress (A beautiful bronze piece). Then we were able to view Jan’s studio and the beautiful sculpture gardens at Moongate. It was a great opportunity to learn and be inspired by other artists, and to meet and connect with other artists in the Geelong Sculptors Group.
