What's on at Billilla

Here’s a snapshot of what’s in store.

Outdoor Arts Lab

Outdoor Arts Lab at Billilla is a unique opportunity for artists to explore diverse artistic outcomes in an outdoor setting. Artists will spend up to two weeks in the gardens, (8am-8pm) and present an artist talk and showing of their work to the Bayside community.
