The Gala weekend of May 1 & 2 will consist of an Artists Expo and a Gala Exhibition...
* Artists Expo:Artists/Curators and Academics will be speaking on a topic of their choice for 30 minutes.
* GALA Exhibition: We will be sending out a list of participants soon.
The Banner for this Exhibition is,'BLACK OR WHITE IT JUST AIN"T RIGHT'
This is challenging the imminent closure of our longest running Aboriginal Artists' flagship for self determination.With the intervention raging like a wild bushfire and degrading the last embers of hope it is TIME to stand up and be counted.
It is TIME to stand as Brother and Sister, Aunt and Uncle, as a united community of people who care about saving history and not letting it get wiped off the Australian history slate like so much of our history.
