The gift gallery has operated out of the VIC for several years, and any surplus from the operation is put back into the community-run facility.
“We realise that for some local residents, shopping for gifts has become more difficult with the closure of local stores,” said Sharon Dyson-Smith, secretary of Towns With Heart, whose volunteers manage the gallery.
“Our gift gallery has a wide range of gifts, many of them locally-crafted, at reasonable prices.”
Scarves, jewellery, hats, soaps and creams are among the items in store, along with locally-crafted handmade greeting cards for all occasions.
The VIC is located at 199 Lang Street, Kurri Kurri.
