Art & About Sydney 2014

On Friday 19th September Sue and I went to see Art & About in the city for the first time - specifically, the Quarter Acre Block Party.

Art & About Sydney


Held in Martin Place, it was a free event meant to celebrate the opening of the festival with live music and  food with a theme of kitschy 60's and 70's suburban Australian culture. 

It was pretty crowded when we first got there so we decided to get a hot dog from the 'Car-B.Q.' At first I was highly confused then I finally realised there was a man barbequing on top of a car bonnet. I should add the pork hot dog with pickle remoulade was delicious.

Car-B.Q. ... apparently it's a thing.
After listening to The Morrisons, we boarded a free vintage bus (the same buses we got to ride at the Fifties Fair) to the Art Gallery of NSW.


Beret - Vintage from The Shire Vintage and Collectables Fair
Cardigan - Forever 21
Bag - Sportsgirl
Jeans - Retrospec'd
Lipstick - True Red (Revlon)
The only exhibition open to view was The Archibald so we just looked around and decided to eat.. again :)

We ordered a 'scone' with jam & cream but what came out of the kitchen was one tiny scone, not worth the price. It was fun to see the gallery at night too!

Sue awaits the scone
