Confluence exhibition - for the Bob Brown Foundation

Confluence ~ Hearts, hands and minds for takayna

Welcome to 3 days of art, music and workshops at Earthside Exchange. 

Four artists from across Australia have collaborated to bring you a multidisciplinary exhibition. Taking inspiration from takayna (the Tarkine, Tasmania), we have curated this event to share with you the awe and wonder of this special place. Please see the event schedule below.

Threatened and vulnerable, takayna needs protecting. Funds raised from our event will be donated to the Bob Brown Foundation, taking action for earth.

Tickets for all workshops and raffle can be bought by following the prompts.

We acknowledge the palawa as the original and continuing Custodians of this Country lutruwita, and acknowledge that we hold our exhibition on stolen land. We pay our respects to Elders past and present. Takayna was never ceded, and is and always will be Aboriginal land.
