Hervey Bay Art

Wednesday 26 July

On the way to our first stop (the Stockland Shopping Centre) we saw an eagle sculpture outside a Vet Clinic.

At the shopping centre I found 'Mister Minit' and got a new battery in my car remote. We also admired the the 'Reconciliation Mural'.

Next was a visit to the Hervey Bay Regional Gallery, where there was a big range of art to be admired.

We wandered inside the gallery, where there was 'Origin' feature - recognition of the significance of the 'State of Origin' football in NSW and Queensland. We wondered why the NSW player had four arms. That question remains unanswered.

We did not understand the significance of all work, but we enjoyed our time looking.

Our first stop was a photo of more art, at Fisherman's Park. It was huge.
