Brick Bay Sculpture Trail


After taking an hour-long artistic ramble through the beautiful grounds and native bush of Brick Bay Wines, recuperate with a wine tasting at the architecturally impressive cafe. Ask about the annual 'Folly' competition, where an up-and-coming NZ artist is funded to construct their winning design, which is subsequently installed at Brick Bay.
