Exhibition Opening: The Artistic Magnitude of Mullum Mullum
Please join us to celebrate the opening of The Artistic Magnitude of Mullum Mullum at Maroondah Federation Estate Gallery presented by Mullum Mullum Indigenous Gathering Place on:
Thursday 7th July, 6pm - 8pm
This special opening, taking place during NAIDOC Week, will include a Welcome to Country, Smoking Ceremony, performances by the Bandok Tati dance group, singing from Yeng Gali Mullum and a poetry reading by Aunty Irene Norman.
Mullum Mullum Indigenous Gathering Place's (MMIGP) new exhibition showcases the multi-talented Artists within the local Indigenous Community.
The exhibition presents art down through the ages, from the Ancestors to modern times-from soft weaving used for gathering and serving food to furs used for warmth, bedding, carrying babies and children as well as for shelter. Tools used for daily life and weapons used for hunting are shared, alongside photography and Indigenous items produced with contemporary methods.
Please RSVP online below or by phone on 0417 915 347 or 9298 4545.
