A sculpture park

Is this a direction for the Valley Park if the M9 sculpture project goes ahead? writes Brian Byrne.

Set in 16 hectares of bush and landscaped gardens near Frankston on the Mornington Peninsula outside Melbourne, the McClelland Gallery+Sculpture Park attracts thousands of visitors each year.



The Gallery presents an inspiring and engaging range of changing exhibitions and public programs. McClelland’s outdoor sculpture collection showcases over 70 works by prominent Australian sculptors.

The park was made possible through a foundation set up by Dame Elisabeth Joy Murdoch AC, DBE, the widow of Australian newspaper publisher Sir Keith Murdoch, and the mother of international media proprietor Rupert Murdoch. At the age of 102 she still takes an active interest in a range of philanthropic endeavours.
