Exhibition Opening - JamFactory ICON Julie Blyfield: Chasing a Passion & I Own a Phil Riley

You are warmly invited to join us for the launch of two exhibitions: JamFactory ICON Julie Blyfield: Chasing a Passion and Phil Riley: I Own a Phil Riley.

Julie Blyfield, one of Australia's most respected contemporary jewellers, brings her celebrated touring exhibition Chasing a Passion to Mount Gambier as part of JamFactory’s ICON series. Inspired by the natural world and botanical forms, Blyfield's finely detailed works in metal speak to decades of technical mastery and deep artistic curiosity.

Complementing this national icon is Mount Gambier’s own beloved jeweller Phil Riley, whose handcrafted bracelets have gathered iconic status among locals. I Own a Phil Riley celebrates the timeless appeal of his work – pieces that are instantly recognisable, worn with pride, and steeped in personal stories from the Limestone Coast and beyond.
