Looking for something to do on the June long weekend. 

The Pearl Beach Arboretum (Crommelin Native Arboretum) is holding its first Ephemeral Art Trail (PBEAT) over three weeks in June 2021. It will be open to the public from Friday 11 June until the end of the first week of the public school holidays, Sunday 4 July 2021.

There will be 16 ephemeral artworks by artists or groups of artists and five community installations on display which are inspired by the Arboretum site and which our special relationship with the Australian bush. Information from volunteers and activities for children will be available on weekends. PBEAT also aims to support community identity and increase cultural vibrancy. Creating the unexpected is a key objective.

A donation of $5 per adult is requested from visiting adults to go towards the environmental education objectives of the Arboretum. There is a $500 cash prize arising from “People’s Choice” voting.
