11.01.2022 To commemorate National Reconciliation Week, MEAC is showcasing a range of impressive Indigenous artwork by local Indigenous artists Greg James, Holly McLennan Brown and Tom Day in our exhibition currently on display, which will run until the 10th of June The goal of reconciliation is to develop stronger relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians through a celebration of Indigenous culture. National Reconciliation Week, which runs from the 27th of May to ...the 3rd of June each year, is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures, and achievements, and to explore how each of us can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia. The exhibition features a range of Acyrilic canvasses, Woods, Fabric and Ceramics. All three artists take inspiration from their cultural heritage, drawing upon dreaming and creation stories as well as their connection to country. In doing so, they seek to increase understanding of Indigenous culture through their art.

05.01.2022 Our extremely talented and lovely Thursday Creative Art class ladies have their beautiful work up in our art gallery as our current exhibition.
