They have arrived! They’re so sweet and so fun! I found these fabulous pieces at the Rose Street Markets in Melbourne during my last sejour (which we affectionatly named Frocktober as we hunted for frocks, drank Pimms on rooftops and danced down alleyways). They’re been recreated by an awesome artist, Mr Greg Mann. We’re currently stocking an array of pendants, earrings and rings! RRP $55 each

PICA’s Artists Car Boot Sale is back! In an exuberant carnivalesque atmosphere, artists will again take over the Perth Cultural Centre, creating a unique microcosm of art and collectables within a landscape of cars, tables, tarpaulins and suitcases. New works will appear alongside older works getting a second airing, while collected art, trash, treasure and shiny collectables will frame performance and installation unique to the day.

Members of the public are invited to come along for a day of digging for treasure and ogling the goods. Enjoy a bevy of beautiful objects, all chosen with an artist’s careful eye and take home a masterpiece or two!

Tasty treats and delicious beverages will all be available for the day, along with plenty of entertainment.
