Kookaburra Hollow

Our Story – Kookaburra HollowHi, I’m Jodie, the heart behind Kookaburra Hollow!Our journey began with a deep appreciation for Australian creativity and craftsmanship, bringing together talented artisans to showcase their unique work and share their skills with others. Nestled amongst the trees on Tamborine Mountain’s iconic Gallery Walk, Kookaburra Hollow is more than just a shop—it’s a creative hub where people can experience handmade products, connect with makers, and take part in hands-on workshops.We believe that creativity is meant to be shared, which is why Kookaburra Hollow isn’t just about selling handmade goods—it’s also about learning, making, and inspiring others. Our makers don’t just create beautiful products; they also run interactive workshops where people can learn directly from the artists behind the work. Whether it’s pottery, painting, resin art, or woodworking, we provide a space where customers can experience the joy of creating something with their own hands.How It All StartedI’ve always had a passion for handmade artistry and supporting local businesses, but the idea for Kookaburra Hollow truly took flight when I realised how many incredible creators lacked a dedicated space to share their work. From there, Kookaburra Hollow was born—a space where small businesses, artisans, and creatives could come together to showcase and sell their handcrafted products in an environment that values authenticity, quality, and community.Why I Love Teaching & Sharing My PassionI believe creativity should be accessible to everyone, and there’s nothing more rewarding than seeing someone light up when they learn a new skill or create something with their own hands. Teaching workshops allows me to connect with people, share my knowledge, and inspire others to explore their creative potential. Whether it’s painting, crafting, or exploring other artistic mediums, I love guiding people through the process and showing them just how capable they are.A Creative Hub for Makers & WorkshopsKookaburra Hollow isn’t just a retail space—it’s a hub for creativity, learning, and collaboration.
