04.01.2022 We are over the moon to announce that the statues have successfully made the journey from Dublin, across the big blue ocean to arrive safely in Tasmania!!! Much like the original convict women and their children, it was a long and somewhat periled journey. We are now raising the final funds needed to ensure their installation - HELP US by donating today and sharing our cause: https://www.trybooking.com/au/donate/FromTheShadows
