The Old Auction House is presenting several exhibitions across an exciting range of styles, themes, and media this month and next.

In the studio gallery until April 21, a group exhibition titled Cozy Comfort presents the autumn-inspired works of seven local artists and is part of the Macedon Ranges Autumn Festival.

The works aim to capture the spirit of autumn – including chilled mountain air and autumnal hues of red, orange, and yellow.

In the main gallery until April 28, ceramics and paintings by artists Larissa Taylor and Cathy Mackay explore the connection between the natural world and the memories that shape our sense of place in an exhibition called Wilderness Within.

An exhibition titled Opening Gestures will showcase indigo pigmented balsa wood works depicting gestures and playful groupings of shapes, created by artist Andrea Jewell.

Then, on May 17 – aligning with The International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia (IDAHOBIT) – the gallery will host Macedon Ranges Accessible Arts’ Queerthentic Regional LGBTQIA+ Art Prize, with the awards ceremony set to run from 1–3pm.

These works will be on display a week before and after the event.

The Old Auction House Creative Hub and Gallery is open every day from 10am–4pm at 52-56 Mollison Street, Kyneton.
