Buderim Craft Cottage
Since 1967 the Buderim Craft Cottage has been the home of the community’s creative people. Set on Main Street beside the Memorial Hall, the Cottage has undergone many stages of development over the decades and is now a vibrant and active centre for artisans of many different types of creative endeavour.
There are over 300 members, who are involved in everything from photography, painting, pottery, sculpture, silk painting, to silversmithing, needlework and patchwork.
The Buderim Craft Cottage is a volunteer organisation and is always keen to welcome new members. If you are interested, give them a call on 5450 1714 or call into the Craft Cottage during the week.
The Cottage was formed in 1967 with the object to encourage study and promotion of Arts and Crafts in the township and district of Buderim and to establish and maintain liaison with other arts and Crafts Societies.
We have over 300 members working in twelve different self-help groups with specific classes and workshops arranged from time to time as needed.
Please feel free to drop in any time and see what’s happening.
THE SCULPTURED GARDEN
An exhibition of works created by the sculptors and potters of Buderim Craft Cottage.
Each year since 1997 this group of local artists has mounted a spring exhibition of their sculptural creations, mostly designed for display in gardens.
Visitors are treated to an eye-popping display of unique sculptural works, all designed, made and kiln-fired on the Sunshine Coast, by members of the Buderim Craft Cottage.
The standard of work on display rival anything you will see on the world stage . . . no we are not exaggerating! This is really good stuff!
The exhibition opens in October, usually coinciding with the Buderim Garden Festival, at the Atrium Gallery at Buderim Craft Cottage, 5 Main Street Buderim
Entry is free and all work is for sale.
The second weekend of the exhibition is held in conjunction with Buderim’s Spring Garden Festival, held next door at Buderim’s Community Hall and at “Open Gardens” around Buderim.
