Griffith, New South Wales

IOOF Park

On the out west to Broken Hill, we spent a night in Griffith and upon arrival found ourselves at the IOOF Park looking at the sculptures as the sun set.

Heading out to Broken Hill for our ‘coming out of lockdown’ break, we spent the evening in Griffith, arriving at sunset and spent the afternoon in IOOF Park looking at the Centenary Sculptures. A gift to the City of Griffith from the people of Griffith to commemorate 100 years of progress.
