If you want to treat yourself, take yourself to the Pinnacles Gallery to view the exhibition entitled Crossing. It's a wonderful display of mixed media installations relating to the Ross River. I'm sorry I can't show out-of-towners more, but the lady manning the display very properly wouldn't let me take photos, but there is an impressive array of work by various artists, from carved fishing boats at anchor to a static photo displays and all sorts in-between. 
Our (yes, we claim you as our own when you're good) Marion is one of the exhibitors and sent me these photos or her fantastic bats and pneumataphores ..... (that's just a fancy name for the spiky things that mangroves stick up in the water). The bats appear to be woven basketry covered in a black fabric. Amazing! A light throws the shadows on the wall behind them and a video of some sort has an image of other bats flying across the area every so often. So beautifully presented.
Great work, Marion.
