The three wonderful ladies in the picture happen to be all Committee members of the Bathurst Regional Art Gallery Society (BRAGS) and this picture was taken at the fabulous “Christmas in July” event held at the superb BoxGrove Country Retreat on Saturday 11 July. From left to right they are Anna Blackburn, Ingrid Pearson and Santina Grando.
The capacity crowd thoroughly enjoyed the mouthwatering food, the delightful Glühwein and other drinks. Also, Abstract Compulsion provided the music and kept the place pumping all night.
But it was the venue that the three ladies in the image really want to talk about. The owners of BoxGrove are young, hard-working people determined to present the best possible function and event venue to the public.
Congratulations to Kayla and Ben Fry and Melissa Atkins.
It is their attention to detail and determined focus on the customer that makes this venue stand out. That is why BRAGS chose this venue last year for “Primavera”, its major fundraising event of the year and have chosen this venue again to hold its second Primavera on the 12 September 2026.
If you enjoy art and culture, the chance to win a valuable raffle prize or bid on artwork you would be proud to display at home; if you also like good company in one of the Central West’s premier locations, this is an event not to be missed.
