Congratulations to Jimmy Rix who has been awarded the $5,000 Waverley Council Mayor’s Award for his beautiful sculpture Waiting for rain at Sculpture by the Sea, Bondi 2019
The award was chosen by this year’s Sculpture by the Sea, Bondi judging panel, including Stephen Bradley, Felicity Fenner and Sasha Grishin AM FAHA, on behalf of the Mayor of Waverley.
