NEW WORK AT BLACKTOWN ART CENTRE FOR BLACK(S)TOWN SHOW JUNE 25
Black(s)town is an exhibition of established and emerging artists exploring the origins of Blacktown through its historical and contemporary Aboriginal identities. Inspired and informed by the stories of the original Blacks' Town settlement, this project acknowledges and celebrates Aboriginal heritage and contemporary practices within Blacktown, while exploring issues central to the identity of the region.
Public programming for the exhibition will include educational workshops by selected Aboriginal artists, guest lectures from Darug and local elders and local historians. The exhibition is part of the Black(s)town initiative, a project dedicated to the long term development and recognition of local Aboriginal cultures, communities and arts practices.
