8pm - 9pm Live Music Performance by Lulu and Tess Hickey (Apolline)
Sisters Lulu (fiddle) and Tess (cello) Hickey are Melbourne-based musicians with deep roots in the Australian folk scene. Drawing from backgrounds in classical and jazz, they bring a unique energy to their trio Apolline, blending diverse influences into an innovative folk sound. Inspired by artists such as Natalie Haas, Hanneke Cassel, and The Fretless, their music is shaped by a love of storytelling and a passion for connecting with audiences. Their creative approach reflects a freedom found in folk, pushing boundaries while staying true to the genre’s emotive core.
6pm - 9pm Wine Tastings by Patch Wines
Patch Wines is the creative partnership of Kirilly Gordon and Matt Talbot, built on a philosophy of minimal intervention and a balance of intuition and winemaking science. Their wines are honest, thoughtfully crafted, and made for pure enjoyment. Sourced from hand-picked grapes grown in acclaimed regions including the Yarra Valley, Nagambie Lakes, and the Pyrenees, each bottle reflects a deep respect for both the land and the craft.
Sunset Sessions provide a unique opportunity to experience exhibitions in a relaxed, social setting with others who share a passion for culture and creativity.
