Imaginatively designed and converted by owner Ron Ward into an art space from an existing squash courts building, The Tree Frog Gallery is an artistic architectural piece in itself, both inside and out. The building has been awarded in 2002 for innovative commercial redevelopment in the region by the Building Designers' Association of Queensland.

Ron is an accomplished graphic artist and businessman who abandoned the big city for the relaxed lifestyle of the Sunshine Coast hinterland. His previous career was involved with a clothing label making retail resortwear and screenprinting business.

The exterior of the building has been remodelled in modern corrugated iron for an authentic Australian look whilst the elegant gallery verandahs feature timber fittings.

Inside the Gallery ...

The Tree Frog Gallery is multilevel, with glorious high 7m ceilings to enable the successful presentation of very large paintings. Full of air and light, the space lends itself to the successful display of its wide range of art, sculpture and craft. Open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily, the gallery has a spacious modern European feel and is equipped with effective modern lighting racks.

For the discerning tourist, The Tree Frog Gallery has a diverse range of gifts and souvenirs of Australia and the local Blackall Range area.

Coffee Shop ...

On the mezzanine floor, the gallery verandah incorporates a modern cafe offering coffee, tea and locally concocted dangerous delights to tempt the art patron and provides a resting place during gallery browsing.
