Rosie Lyons Studio: Gallery, Secondhand Bookshop and Cafe

It is also a popular local waterhole, offering the best coffee in town with light snacks and a riveting collection of second hand books. Located at the gateway to Port Welshpool and Wilsons Prom, Rosie Lyons Studio is a must-see on a visit to the South Gippsland region.

The gallery has only recently opened and collaborates with local artists to provide a fine collection of local exhibitions showcased in a fresh welcoming space that thoughtfully created to complement the collections. There is an emphasis on themes of nature, sea and marine life boasting an eclectic collection of local artists from the region. Mediums include pyrography, etchings, lino print and much more.

Groups are also catered for with special packages available that include hands-on participation where they can complete a lino printing class and leave with locally inspired print (occasionally enjoyed with wine and cheese as requested). There is an exhibition space that can be hired by local artists or travelling galleries to the region.

Rosie Lyons Studio is accessible by bus, by car or for those adventuring via bycicle on the Gippsland Rail Trail. The shop has Wi-Fi and toilet facilities.
