'We Do Recognition' Art Workshop April 2019
On Tuesday April 2nd, students of year 9L, 10B and VCE Studio Arts participated in an Art Workshop with a local Indigenous artist Aunty Bronwyn Razem, assistant Katja Nedoluha and Geelong Gallery Education Assistant Ella Preston at MFG. They had the opportunity to develop knowledge and understanding of indigenous aboriginal culture through stories shared, by learning basket weaving techniques and making a small pendant using raffia material. The weavings will be exhibited as an artwork at the Geelong Gallery as part of NADOIC week and returned to students later in the year.
