25.01.2022 Weve missed you Salamanca Market. The organisers and stallholders of Salamanca Market have been working hard to make the Market a safe place for us to visit and enjoy. Theyve done this and are now ready to welcome us back, tomorrow in fact Saturday, 8 August 2020. Yes, things will be a little different so check-in with the Markets website for details. Each weekend a different bunch of Tasmanian artists, designers and producers will be selling their wares. ... The surrounding galleries and shops including Salamanca Arts Centre will be open for business too. For those of you who cannot be there in person tomorrow Salamanca Market has an online store ready for you to browse. See you tomorrow Salamanca Market! https://www.salamancamarket.com.au/Home #Tasmanian #SalamancaMarket
24.01.2022 **This is a repost from a Tasmanian business** While theyre excited to open, the owners and employees are still stressed. Theyre not through the woods yet. Please dont go to these businesses and complain about changes that were forced upon them due to lost revenue, lost employees, new policies and protocols. They dont have the same business they had a few months ago.... Theyre doing everything they can to adapt to the situation. But everything is different for them as a customer youll likely never understand behind the scenes. Be kind. Be compassionate. Have patience. Theyre still trying to recover from battle number one and their next battle of rebuilding has just begun. Support local BE KIND EVERYONE. #Tasmanian #BuySomethingTasmanian **Were all in this together and need to continue to support each other. Please share with your network.**

22.01.2022 Composer * craftsman * teacher If you go to Hobarts Salamanca Market youll hear Carys reflective music before you see him calmly playing his tunes. Cary is many things, a father to seven children including triplets, a self-taught guitarist and composer and designer/maker. He and his family welcome people into their home for house concerts and guitar making workshops. ... His instruments are handmade by him using Tasmanian timbers like precious Huon Pine. His music reflects his skill, diversity and compassion. Hes played with many big names but he probably wont tell you that hes humble. Hes Tasmanian. https://bit.ly/carylewincamp #Tasmanian

21.01.2022 Reflect Share Celebrate In 2014 Tasmanians on Flinders Island chose to hold a festival over three days around the 26 of January, but not on this day, and events are held in various locations all over the island. Their Furneaux Islands Festival celebrates Australia’s multi-cultural heritage. The islanders come together to celebrate the place where they live, the island’s culture and what makes them a community. Whatever you choose to do today respect individual beliefs as ...we should always. #Tasmanian Flinders Island Council
20.01.2022 Escape with Tasmanian Sci Art Walks Each year Tasmanian scientists work on projects which help us understand the world around us, help preserve our environment and its inhabitants we value so greatly. They help shape our future. Our Beaker Street Festival celebrates the islands scientific community. Being the extraordinary thinkers they are the festival team re-imagined thier event this year. They have managed to find a way to deliver a festival during a pandemic by creati...ng a series of audio escapes. Each escape is narrated by a Tasmanian. They talk about Tasmanian scientific and cultural stories of many sorts. Stories of the Tasmanian Aboriginal people, stories of our climate and contemporary art. Each story teller has been paired with a musician and each story explores a Tasmanian walk in a different region of the state. Where ever you are in the world you can experience a Tasmanian walk. www.sciartwalks.com.au #Tasmanian
20.01.2022 ECHO Festival of the region and the community. We love our Tasmanian country gatherings. Stoking a bonfire to keep us warm, sharing a meal, sampling a local drop and telling stories (and making more). We do this to celebrate where we live the history, the people, what we produce and create. A regional festival held on the island’s East Coast, ECHO Festival - East Coast Harvest Odyssey, does all of those things and more. ... Held at Gala Estate Vineyard, ECHO is curated by local musician and event producer Ange Boxall and delivered with the help of her tribe of extraordinary Tasmanians. https://www.echofestival.com.au/ #Tasmanian PuddleHub The Visual Storyteller
20.01.2022 "Families are like seasons: you don’t get to pick them, and when they show up you best be ready". ‘The Season’ Nathan Maynard . .... . Each year on islands and coastal areas Mutton Birds come back to lutruwita / Tasmania to roost. On the north east tip of the island is an archipelago of smaller islands, one is called Dog Island. ‘The Season’ by lutruwita / Tasmanian playwright Nathan Maynard tells the story of a palawa family who make the annual trip to Dog Island for six weeks of the Mutton Bird season. Nathan’s play talks about this palawa tradition and its cultural significance to the palawa people. The story tells of the place, the people and the experience, with humour and love. https://bit.ly/youtube_NathanMaynard_SydFest17 ‘The Season’ had successful seasons in both Hobart and on the bigger island too at the Sydney and Melbourne International Arts Festivals. The story resonated with many and the production was nominated for eight Green Room Awards in the theatre category taking out the three big ones, Best Writer, Director and Production. Nathan is now collaborating with Mori writer Jamie McCaskill on a cross-cultural production Hide the Dog. Through the story of First Nations kids 'Hide the Dog' is a celebration of adventure, friendship and reconnecting with culture something that can never be lost. The themes in 'Hide the Dog' certainly give us something to think about this week. Tasmania Performs and Performing Lines worked with Nathan on 'The Season' and 'Hide the Dog'. #NAIDOC #NAIDOC2020 #NAIDOCWeek #lutruwita #Tasmanian

17.01.2022 takara nipaluna (Walking Hobart) Nunami Sculthorpe-Green once worked on Macquarie Street in nipaluna/Hobart, and imagined Truganini in her later years walking down the same street, wearing her beanie, walking her dogs. This impression inspired Nunami to think about the other Hobart, a place defined by its palawa history and the horrors of European colonisation. After years of research and hard work, she launched takara nipaluna, a moving and unforgettable 90-minute walking... tour of nipaluna/Hobart that tells the story of the Tasmanian Aboriginal people through the landmarks and haunted places, going back thousands of years. She weaves contemporary victories and a hopeful vision of the future with pre-invasion history and the difficult, devastating and bloody era of genocide. takara nipaluna is a new work, and tourism opportunity, launched as part of 10 Days on the Island 2021. It begins and ends with live music by Nunami’s friend Kartanya Maynard http://bit.ly/abc936breakfast_takara_nipaluna The work was presented by Tasmania Performs as part of Ten Days on the Island 2021. #Tasmanian
17.01.2022 Gin ‘Mothers Ruin’, a drink taken for medicinal purposes, a tipple that gives you a little ‘Dutch Courage. The history of gin spans centuries. It’s gone in and out of fashion. Right now Tasmanian gin is very much in fashion that’s for sure. Across the island there are (at last count) 64 gin distillers. Each distiller blends flavours to create their very own distinct gin. A little bit of this, a little bit of that, flavours you’d never imagine would be used together. Tasma...nian botanicals are used too. Forty Spotted Gin Professors teach gin aficionados to blend their own gin. Many people leave the class with hopes of starting their own distillery (briefly anyway). But we’re simply happy to keep savouring Tasmanian gins and leave the making to our extraordinary expert distillers. Gin Bar #cheers. #Tasmanian

15.01.2022 Forget big-bearded blokes in flannel shirts carving objects from wood. Tasmanian design today has a decidedly feminine edge. And yes it does. Some of the designers are inspired by the landscape and use Tasmanian materials. For others the islands natural qualities provide them the space to think and create. Either way they all draw inspiration from the place. They all choose to live and work in Tasmania.... Of course, were also proud of our male Tasmanian designers too. http://bit.ly/TasmanianDesign_MaterialGirls Article by Luke Slattery. #Tasmanian
15.01.2022 We spent two deeply moving days with our guides Carleeta and Hank at wukalina and larapuna, who told us stories and showed us how Tasmanian Aboriginal people lived, how they live, and how they will live on their land. The wukalina walk is an invitation into something you cant find anywhere else. We learned about how a new generation of palawa people are embracing their culture and building extraordinary things with their communities. Its so inspiring, and were honoured t...o begin working with them. #Tasmanian
15.01.2022 Tough boots to fill Blundstone Australia has been owned by the same Tasmanian family for 150 years. Thinking about this just imagine the stories Blundstone boots have been part of over the last 150 years and the stories of the humans whove worn them. Soldiers, farmers, tradies, dancers and urban hipsters. How absolutely perfect is it that two Tasmanian organisations, Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra and Blundstone, collaborated to create a soundtrack for Blundstones 150 year... anniversary celebration. The story of the boots are captured in #TSODailyDose in a chat with Blundstones co-Chief Operating Officer Adam Blake. To add to the Tasmanianess of the story young Tasmanian composer Saxon Hornett wrote Blundstones music. #Tasmanian bit.ly/TSODailyDose_Blundstone

10.01.2022 Province . . . We often talk about how artists and artisans find their home in Tasmania. How the island gives them the space to make what they want to, the space to think, the space to create. When these people talk about their work its often how the landscape, mostly their position in it, leads what they do. ... Tasmanian artist Clifford Hows latest works explore just this.

07.01.2022 As much as we’ve all enjoyed Zoom, it can’t re-create the feeling of being in a room with other people. Australia’s oldest theatre, Tasmania’s Theatre Royal (Hobart), like venues around the world, had a little pause of late. Our beautiful Theatre Royal is now back at work hosting live performances again. Its new wing The Hedburg is open for business too, and it’s a gorgeously designed space historical architecture meeting modern design. A key part of the story we heard from... Tasmanians is that life here is mysteriously more human. Little is more human than spending time in a quiet room with our neighbours as a performing artist connects us to the truth. The Bleeding Tree starring Marta Dusseldorp at the Theatre Royal was originally ending its run on Saturday night. It’s been so popular with Tasmanians they added six shows. We don’t want to spoil it but the play is both brutal and funny, with an ending you won’t forget. We are sure Fred (the theatre’s resident ghost) is happy to have company again too. This season is presented by Archipelago Productions, Blue Cow Theatre Inc. and Theatre Royal, the play was written by Angus Cerini and stars Marta Dusseldorp. The artistic team includes Glenn Richards as composer/sound designer, Jacky Collyer as assistant sound designer, Jason James as lighting designer, Liminal Studio for set design. Other case members are Kartanya Maynard and Jane Johnson, Director is Ben Winspear, Assistant Director Emma Skalicky and Stage Manager Ellen Roe. Amy Brown Photographer Nick Osborne #tasmanian

05.01.2022 We honour the Tasmanian Aboriginal community, their Elders past, waranta tunapri pakana mana mapali (we acknowledge the Tasmanian Aboriginal community) and present and thank them for caring for the place we all call home. waranta nayri nina-tu milaythina lumi (we thank you for looking after this land). .... . . Welcome to Country The words you hear or read in a Welcome to Country narrative may be a little different from time to time but the message is the same. Welcome to Country is extended by our Aboriginal people to those visiting their land, inviting them to both respect the place and its people. An acknowledgement is given by those visiting the lands of our Aboriginal people and through their expression, they agree to respect the place and its people. We’ve shared some images with you of a Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony performed at a Tasmanian festival held on the island’s east coast ECHO. The performers invited all people at the festival to join in. Native Tasmanian plants were burnt to keep bad spirits away and each person taking part in the ceremony passed their hands through the smoke. All who participated in the ceremony committed to looking forward to a bright and respectful future together. The ceremony was performed by Craig Everett and Linton Burgess.

05.01.2022 A good and delightfully chilly morning to you from Tasmania. The hike up kunanyi / Mount Wellington earlier today was worth it for one intrepid Tasmanian.

05.01.2022 Farming is all about hard work, trying new things and, every so often, a little luck. Yesterday we learnt a little more about farming in Tasmania on a property in the north of the state near the town of Cressy. It was a busy day, a normal day. Lambs were being prepared for market, the hemp crop was inspected to see if it was ready to be harvested and a plot of land was being prepared to sow the next crop rotation. Finding a four leaf clover was a delightful surprise. Thanks Robbie and Charlie Tole for sharing your patch of Tasmania with us.
04.01.2022 Tasmanias whisky distillers and devotees are taking time this week to celebrate the tipple they make and enjoy Tasmanian Whisky Week Things were not always so encouraging for Tasmanias whisky distillers. A thriving industry came to an abrupt halt when, back in the 1800s, Lady Jane Franklin proclaimed, I would prefer barley be fed to pigs than it be used to turn men into swine. As Lady Franklin was the wife of then Lieutenant-Governor of Van Diemans Land (a land now...adays known as Tasmania) she had more than a bit of influence. In 1992, after a wee 150 year whisky distilling prohibition, Tasmanian Bill Lark managed to work with government to get the law amended and he started a whisky distillery. Mr Lark inspired others to start their own distilleries and now Tasmania once again has a flourishing whisky industry. At this time of the year Tasmanian Whisky Week is held across the island. Like many of our events this one has been a little re-imagined. We can all take part simply by buying a dram or a bottle of Tasmanian whisky and savour the flavour of a distinctly Tasmanian drop. The biggest problem now is what Tasmanian whisky to choose. #Tasmanian #Tasmanianwhisky Lusy Productions and Adam Gibson

By doing this youll be helping a Tasmanian business too. #Tasmanian #BuySomethingTasmanian @winetasmania @brunyislandcheese
03.01.2022 To parrot a phrase we all know well Lifes a journey. Journeys are stories and we make these stories each and every day. Many Tasmanian stories have been carved out of the wilderness, captured in written and visual narrative. Taking the time to surround ourselves in the islands rugged beauty, to remove ourselves from the everyday, is a treat we often neglect to allow ourselves. Two Tasmanian businesses Handmark and Tasmanian Walking Company have combined what they do, ar...t and walking experiences. They tell us there is more information to come. Until then what theyve spoken about reminders us to spend time in nature, or a park, whatever is possible. Its good for us. We are also taking this time to think of our neighbours across Bass Strait in Victoria, and other places as well, who are doing it tough right now. Stay safe. #Tasmanian
02.01.2022 Cheers to our Tasmanian artisan beer brewers. Why? Well, its International Beer Day and we feel the need to celebrate Tasmanias brewers.
