This year Bilk has decided to showcase the best possible Australian glass and metal artists in the lead up to Christmas. We have a rotating exhibition of works from our Bilk on Tour Exhibition that travelled between Melbourne and Sydney earlier this year. Additionally, the exhibition Alchemy by Mark Vaarwerk remains showing; an ingenious use of domestic materials up-cycled into desirable jewellery, these beautiful works are a must-have.

Make the decision to support local designers and buy handmade this Christmas. Join us for ‘Sparkling Fridays’ in the lead up to Christmas – enjoying the luxury of shopping with a glass of sparkle in you hand. And if you find it too hard to choose, don’t worry: we do gift vouchers.

We will be closing on the afternoon of the 22nd of December at 5pm and reopening with an exciting new exhibition late January 2013.
