Phillip Island Gallery - web site


The Gallery is the place to
go to find artworks by members of the Phillip Island community.
The island has a rich artistic life. Painters, photographers,
textile artists, potters all contribute to the work on you can see. Much
of this is for sale.
Of course the island is also home to writers and musicians although
their work does not lend itself to display.

Beware of the library.
Going inside can transport you to distant times and far away places;
you may meet the most desirable of companions; you might fall into the
clutches of the most evil of villains.
Your life may never be the same. Books can do that.
Give your children this gift as well.
The library has many other resources worth discovering.
