There is a modest $2 admission and parking on the property and on the street. The artworks are available for purchase and there is a wide price range. It is a wonderful spot to find a unique gift made locally. Visit them online at their website: https://www.fallsgallery.com.au/ which features selections from the collection and information about the artists. This is a must visit spot for art aficionados. The garden is very beautiful and peaceful and features sculpture works by various arts hidden in amongst the plants.
