The exhibition features work by Canberra based artists working across a variety of mediums as they respond to their learnings and experiences of the 2024 Sharing Stories Arts Exchange. Sharing Stories is a creative participatory project focused on building positive reciprocal relationships between the Canberra community and local and regional Indigenous and non-indigenous communities. The program features culturally rich learning opportunities in the ACT and a structured creative field program visiting areas in south-eastern NSW. In 2024, participants met with Ngunnawal/Ngunawal and Ngambri community members and spent time on Yuin Country, in the far South Coast of NSW. Facilitators in 2024 included Aunty Matilda House, Paul House, Wally Bell, poet Meaghan Holt, artist and cultural worker Alison Simpson, Franz Peters from NSW Parks and Bundian Way author, John Blay.
The aim of the program is to build on existing shared values by way of active reconciliation: learning from local Indigenous people and increasing awareness and understanding of the complexities of culture and reconciliation through creative outcomes.
Please RSVP to the opening for catering purposes.
Sharing Stories Arts Exchange is supported by artsACT and the ANU School of Art & Design.
