Gatepost Sculpture Trail - Across North and South Bruny Island
- Once again we shall be running the ongoing and popular gatepost sculpture trail around Bruny Island.
- Build, erect or fashion your fabulous sculpture at your gatepost and photograph it to show off its best sides by Monday 7th October. (Entries close Sept 28th)
- The sculpture has simply to fit a bird theme, but does not need to literally be a bird, it can be a silhouette, a feather, an egg ........ feel free to think outside the nest.
- Why not make it a permanent sculpture that will join the many wonderful year round tributes to the importance of birdlife on Bruny Island
- Prizes available // $250 - Adult // $50 and a book - Child (12 & under)
- Prizes generously provided by the Bruny Island Ferry Company
