A tourist’s first thought about the Yarra Ranges’ biggest drawcard may be the stunning views or the incredible wineries.
But it shouldn’t be forgotten the region also plays host to a thriving, vibrant art community.
Throughout the Yarra Ranges, art-lovers don’t need to look too hard to find a great place to view some incredible pieces of art.
From the visually impressive Burrinja Cultural Centre in the south of the region, to the Tarrawarra Museum of Art in the north, and everything in between, there are plenty of reasons to stop in and discover local exhibition.
