Sculpture on the Edge brings creativity to life at Flaxton Gardens

The event runs daily from 8am to 2pm.

Flaxton Gardens will come alive this November as it hosts the 15th annual Sculpture on the Edge, a nine-day celebration of art against the stunning backdrop of the Sunshine Coast hinterland.

Running from November 23 to December 1, the event features a diverse range of indoor and outdoor sculptures presented by Arts Connect Inc. 

Visitors can also get involved in hands-on workshops, exploring their own creativity while engaging with the work of talented artists from across the region.

This year's theme, 'A Creative Feast', invites attendees to enjoy not only the art but also the natural beauty of Flaxton Gardens, complemented by food and festivities. 

Flaxton Gardens will host opening and closing celebrations for the event, with the opening on November 22 being the only opportunity to see the entire collection illuminated at night.

Event organiser Debbie Weaver said past visitors have consistently praised the exhibition. 

“Past visitors have consistently praised the event, with feedback highlighting the thought-provoking, original talent and the welcoming atmosphere,” Ms Weaver said. “It's a celebration of art and creativity—Sculpture on the Edge is a not to be missed experience for everyone.”

The event runs daily from 8am to 2pm, and workshops and entry tickets are now available for booking. With sculptures available for purchase, it's an opportunity to take home a piece of local talent while enjoying the festive atmosphere.
