Creswick, and the local area, has been a source of inspiration for many significant Australian artists and ArtHouse provides a space to build on this creativity.

RACV Goldfields Resort Manager, Bowen Kress, said RACV is committed to providing more opportunities for visitors to participate in arts experiences and shared “RACV is pleased to open ArtHouse to members, visitors, resort guests and the local community. RACV has a long and proud history of collaborating with Australian artists and values the role art plays in connecting communities.

“ArtHouse will engage, educate and inspire. It is a space where visitors can experience great Australian art and relax in the beautiful surroundings.

“Visitors to ArtHouse are also welcome to enjoy our resort facilities including our golf course.”

Hepburn Shire Mayor Tim Drylie, said that Creswick and the wider region are known for its celebrated arts community and added “the opening of ArtHouse at the RACV Resort provides another creative space for exhibitions, and a place for local and visiting artists to showcase their work.”

ArtHouse’s exhibition will feature artist Casey Jeffery. Jeffery’s practice of rendering nature and the folds and flow of fabrics into her work references the Creswick Woollen Mills.
