Our Christmas exhibition at Narrabeen Tramshed

In addition to all our usual craft and our artists, we will have a fundraising event for Guide Dogs, selling the work of the late Narrabeen crafter Frank Wyld, who died earlier this year at the grand age of 96, and was a passionate supporter of Guide Dogs himself.
Who we are
ACOP is a group of painters and crafters from the Pittwater area, on Sydney's northern beaches. Since 1967, we have held exhibitions three or four times a year in local venues, currently either Mona Vale Memorial Hall or Narrabeen Tramshed Arts & Community Centre. The Mona Vale hall is located at Mona Vale shops, in the park where Pittwater Road and Barrenjoey Road meet. Tramshed is located on Pittwater Road near the original restored Narrabeen tram shed; we use the halls in the building closest to Narrabeen Lake.
At our exhibitions, entry is free, you are welcome to look, and you are welcome to buy - it's entirely up to you.

Getting to our Exhibitions
Mona Vale Memorial Hall is located in the centre of Mona Vale, next door to the library, and just across Village Park from the B1 bus terminus. There is plenty of car parking along the streets and at both Coles and Woolworths. The hall is also opposite the terminus of the 196/197 buses from Gordon. There are plenty of places to grab a snack or a coffee, including Village Park Cafe next door to the hall.
For our Christmas exhibition, we will be at Narrabeen Tramshed Arts & Community Centre. There is a car park alongside, and plenty of car parking on the other side of Pittwater Road. It is also easy to reach by bus, the route B1 express yellow double decker's seventh stop from the city is at the adjacent restored tram shed, where the 199 bus from Manly also stops.
