Dave and Frances have brought us lots of laughs with their ingenuity, like solving a flat tyre in the bush by filling it with grass to get you home
Di has returned from a trip to the Centre with lots of wonderful new treasures for the gallery adding to our eclectic mix of Indigenous art, artefacts and crafts!
Triin and  Di visited several art centres and met up with artists, administrators and several colourful local characters, as well as enjoying a very inspiring symposium at Desert Mob, with presentations on activities relating to community building, special projects, healing, youth engagement and more.
And then there were new arrivals from other parts such as new stainless steel pieces and Catherine’s finely painted jewellery.
