NAIDOC Week 2024: Story feeds the fire of art making. Talk with Rose Murray

Join us in The Strelley Mob exhibition to hear from Rose Murray, Nyangumarta woman and artist whose work Our families gathered pearl shell (2012) is featured in the exhibition.

Rose is a Stolen Generation descendant as her mother was taken from Warrawagine Station and grew up with the first group of Roelands Mission children. The work of the Marrngu artist/teacher at Strelley helped her bridge the gap from living a city life and returning to her Pilbara family.

Formerly a member of the first Council for Aboriginal Reconciliation and a Board member of Country Arts WA, Rose shares insights and experience when searching for story and connection to The Strelley Mob exhibition. Come join us for this unique opportunity to listen and learn.
