At Gecko Studio Gallery we have been steadily buying in new art materials and rearranging everything in a constant effort to fit more in. Our aim is to stock an extensive range for artists in the South Gippsland area so they don’t have to travel long distances to buy quality art materials.
If we don’t currently stock a particular item or brand you need,contact us and we will source whatever you need.
We endeavour to stock the best quality while keeping an eye on the price.
