Treasure hunters are searching Bellarine businesses in the third annual glass art Treasure Hunt, running until February 17 as part of this year\u2019s Festival of Glass in Drysdale.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A record 32 businesses in Curlewis, Drysdale, Clifton Springs and Portarlington are in the Treasure Hunt, identified by a Treasure Hunt poster in their window.<\/p>\n

Each participating business is displaying a piece of glass art commissioned from a local artist.<\/p>\n

Each glass art work displayed will be available as a prize to be won in a draw at the Festival of Glass Expo on February 18 at Drysdale\u2019s Christian College.<\/p>\n

Each business is also discreetly displaying a glass \u201cTiny Treasure\u201d for treasure hunters to search for. When a treasure hunter finds a Tiny Treasure, the business stamps their entry form.<\/p>\n

For every entry form stamped by 10 businesses, the participant can enter the Treasure Hunt draw.<\/p>\n

Festival of Glass organiser Diane Schofield believes everyone participating in the Treasure Hunt is a winner.<\/p>\n

\u201cBusinesses can increase their customer base, glass artists can increase their public profile and treasure hunters can win beautiful glass art.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re very grateful to our major sponsors The Bungalow, Leura Park Estate and Parkers Steakhouse.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe also want to thank the remaining 29 businesses for their support, especially Chris Walsh\u2019s Pharmacy, Pier View Lolly Shop, Joshae Hair and Beauty, Miss Lillypilly and Surf Junction.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 2018 Festival of Glass also includes an exhibition of glass art currently on display at Drysdale\u2019s The Bungalow restaurant, a Venetian glass master blowing and sculpting class at Leura Park Estate on February 17, a huge expo featuring 40 exhibitors and the Glass Art Awards ceremony at Drysdale\u2019s Christian College on February 18, with classes in various glass art techniques too.<\/p>\n
