25.01.2022 Our friends at MLIVE are presenting Sound Gallery Sessions every Wednesday, 7pm from the David Li Sound Gallery. Live-streamed and free, details below



22.01.2022 Celebrating Universal Children's Day with a selection of the recent works produced by students from the Melbourne Indigenous Transition School (MITS), adapted from a three-part video workshop led by artist Tai Snaith. Designed as an outreach program, MUMA offered this program as an alternative to our usual collaboration with MITS due to their relocation to Darwin this year. In her videos Tai included demonstrations of painting and collage techniques and processes. MITS's adap...tation involved researching protected marine life as well as their natural habitats. ‘The Turtle' James Hood (Lake Tyres, VIC) "Turtles are becoming endangered because of plastic so we need to help it and the environment. In other words stop using plastic and start using recycled plastic. One person can make a difference if that one person is committed to make that difference!" ‘Monk Seal' Hazel Armstrong (Batchelor) "This is a Monk Seal and they are becoming extinct because of fish nets. Monk Seal are getting stuck in fishnets and can't get free." ‘The Dolphin' Jocelyn Dhamarrandji (Ramingining) "Dolphins are the best animal that I have ever seen in my life. They are smart, friendly and we have to stop hunting for them! Sixteen species of dolphin are considered to be in danger of extinction according to the Endangered Species Act. Furthermore, because our knowledge about most dolphins and whales is lacking, there may be many more endangered species. We have to stop hunting for them and also we have to think!" #UniversalChildrensDay #MUMAEducation

Here are a number of initiatives we’ve been undertaking towar...ds making sustainable changes: Meat-free Mondays Planting days (weeding, planting new trees, shrubs and herb garden) Composting Turning equipment off at power points Biking or taking public transport We’re also working with the Global Challenges 3rd year unit fromMonash'sBachelor of Advanced Science. This project involves a team of students whohaveundertaken an analysis of MUMA's activities to identify areas where we can improve our environmental impact. As part of the exercise, MUMA will work with the Sustainability Development Institute at @monash_uni to come up with a range of recommendations to become a more sustainable institution #worldkindnessday2020

04.01.2022 Always Was, Always Will Be. To celebrate the start of this year's NAIDOC week, we would like tofeature Kamilaroi artist Archie Moore’s t-shirt designed for MUMA’s Art You Can Wear. Pictured is Archie wearing his own design Based in Brisbane, Archie works across different media to portray self and national histories.... According to the artist: ‘Paying your respects to traditional owners of these lands most times seems a token gesture that doesn’t do anything to advance any movement towards mutual respect or reconciliation. How is this respect paid? Is it just a veiled disclaimer or a loophole? In any case, you have nothing to lose and I have nothing to gain with these words.’ To view and find out more about Archie’s Art You Can Wear t-shirt, visit the link in our bio. #AlwaysWasAlwaysWillBe #NAIDOC2020 #MUMAArtYouCanWear #ArchieMoore
