The Hive Gallery Ocean Grove

More Information

The Hive Gallery in Ocean Grove, established in 2016, is an exciting arts space for the Bellarine Peninsula region.

Downstairs is the exclusive home of Willie Wildlife Sculptures. Known particularly for his bronze birdbaths, the full range of his freestanding, nature and bird inspired sculptures are also exhibited. Will Wilson’s work is well known after 24 years experience sculpting in bronze, and annual exhibitions at the Chelsea Flower Show in the United Kingdom for 11 years. This included 2019, when he had the great honour of meeting Her Royal Highness, The Queen.

Upstairs features a growing collection of over 40 carefully selected Australian artists, with a greater local focus. Both emerging and experienced artists feature, with work including paintings, sculptures, ceramics and handcrafted furniture in a large, light-filled space that overlooks the treetops of the local nature reserve. The Middle Room Space features a carefully curated changing exhibition each month so there is always something new to see.

After you have finished viewing the artwork, there is an on-site cafe, open daily for refreshments.
