John Lacey’s studio and Green Tank Gallery is a must see when visiting the Fleurieu. If you love art you will enjoy your visit here.
From the wonderful setting and atmosphere of Mount Compass you will find the sculptured gardens and contemporary architecture that sits well in the location. It’s just four hundred metres from the Victor Harbor Road, just south of the town. You’ll be delighted with the experience and hospitality.
There’s a regular changing exhibition of very professional work from this award winning artist in his gallery. Then there’s the studio. Here you’ll find work in progress and an abundance of paintings in storage racks. John or Lydia (his wife) will gladly accommodate visitors who would like to see these. Often you’ll find 10 -20 works out, resting on the walls just waiting to be thumbed through. And there is a story to be told about most of them.
We are just over 10 minutes from the McLaren Vale wine district. If you are travelling from Adelaide it’s well worth the extra distance, and the added bonus is the incredible vista from the top of Willunga Hill on your return.
Also being members of the Mt Compass Produce and Tourism Trail, we encourage visitors to explore the local produce. To top this off there is the unique Port Willunga Beach and surrounding village of Aldinga to the west. Then 20 minutes south, the coastal towns of Port Elliot, Goolwa and Victor Harbor.
