Event description
Join Public Art Commission and partners for the opening event of Treatment III, a public art project that celebrates the histories, technologies and communities surrounding wastewater infrastructure in Melbourne’s West.
This in-person event will begin with a Welcome to Country from Bunurong Traditional Owners, gathering at the site of Linda Tegg's work Tending a line in the year of the rabbit (located across the road from Scienceworks Museum, at the corner of Hudson Rd and Booker St). We will then walk over to Scienceworks for the rest of the evening, and view two other key commissions by Robert Andrew and Zanny Begg, installed within the grounds of the Old Pumping Station.
Following on from the digital launch, this event will be a first glimpse of the works at Scienceworks and a celebration of Treatment III.
All are welcome — registration is free, but essential to attend. Drink and light refreshments will be provided; further event details will be communicated by email.
