December 2023 | GOST news

Christmas at GOST | London, Edinburgh + Bath Stories


Christmas 2023 show | 3 Nov to 23 Dec 2023 | more artworks have landed!

Christmas is only 3 weeks away! New works have landed since our last GOST news in November so pop on in to see landscape paintings by Keith Betts, textile wall works by Jess Hall, ceramic vessels by Jacqueline Lewis, unframed and framed paintings by Al Munro, little woodblock paintings by Sue Wearne and two little framed etchings by Michèle Heibel. Plus lots more!

You can still shop online with click and collect (or shipping) anytime. However, keep in mind Australia Post has deadlines if you wish for your gifts to arrive in time for Christmas Day.

If you are visiting from overseas or interstate when we are closed (Mondays to Wednesdays) please contact me as I’m happy to open by appointment.

Please note on Thursday 7 and Friday 8 Dec, I have to close so I can attend a conference in Melbourne from 5-8 December. Thanks for your understanding.

Wishing everyone a relaxing December, best Anne xx

We close Friday 23 December at 4pm for a little break and
reopen Saturday 13 January, 2024.

London, Edinburgh, Bath | Travel Stories

To wrap up the year, I have finally written travel stories on the last leg of our 3 and 1/2 month trip overseas this year. I was clearly loving our last few weeks in the UK and Scotland as I started to write draft stories and promptly forgot until just recently. A girlfriend travelling in London was enough for me to go back through my photos and journal to write all about our trip. So head to London or Edinburgh/Bath for where to stay, places to eat and hidden gems.

My top 7 travel tips are in the Edinburgh stories to help you have
a smoother experience (scroll to the end of page).

The following photos are more related to art and galleries we visited in London. Adam and I have a love for arts, culture + history + a lot of walking! I wish I could write a story for each one but I simply can’t - I also took way too many photos (London alone was in excess of 1000!).

I have put in links to all the photos so you can learn more. Enjoy!
