Artists & Artisans

Inspired by local lore and ripper landscapes, artists and artisans along the Murray River Road showcase a plethora of cultural and industrial makings.

The spirit of creativity is alive in those who are fueled by the future to create something unique, or by the past to carry on traditions and lost skills hundreds (and sometimes thousands) of years old.

Take a whiff of the river redgum as expert woodturners chip away at it on a lathe, feel the fierce heat of the furnace as blacksmiths beat a new purpose into iron ingots, witness the result of hours upon hours of meticulous painting and sculpting in a local gallery and sing along with local musos at the pub.

However you go about it, you’ll feel the passion first-hand on this unbeatable road trip.
