19.01.2022 It's wall season! and ten of the Territory's best artists will transform Darwin City over the next 7 days. On Saturday 19 September (7pm-9pm) and Sunday 20th September, the side of Darwin City Hotel will be illuminated by artwork from women inside Darwin's Correction Centre. The murals will be accompanied by stories and footage of the women, talking about their involvement with prison arts workshops and the art they have created. ... The prison arts workshops were facilitated by YWCA, artist Hannah Illingworth and Ywrite project facilitator Adelle Sefton-Rowston during August. The program empowers women experiencing the justice system to reengage with the community and reduce reoffending. A new Darwin Street Art app will provide you with an interactive experience and information about each artwork, as well as a live map and compass to help you explore Darwin's Street Art Festival. The artworks are being projected by Shane Eecen Creative Studio in Shadforth Lane this weekend. Further information on the Street Art tours and talks will be available on the Darwin Street Art Festival Facebook page. More about Ywrite program can be found at https://ywrite.cdu.edu.au/ This project is a collaboration between College of Indigenous Futures, Arts and Society lecturers Dr Adelle Sefton-Rowston, Dr Tracy Woodroffe, CDU lecturers Associate Professor Simon Moss, Dr Birut Zemits and YWCA Women of Worth program, and artist, Hannah Illingworth.
