Contemporaries enjoyed a luxurious weekend of art, wine and food in the beautiful central-west NSW township of Orange. We started the weekend away with morning tea at the Blue Mountains home studio of artist David Middlebrook, before a special guided tour of Bathurst Regional Art Gallery. Sunday was spent relaxing, as we took in the area’s stunning scenery and enjoyed a local growers’ lunch at the historic home of artist David Serisier and writer Gillian Serisier.
