SUMMARY:Exhibition Opening Night
DESCRIPTION:Join us at the New England Regional Art Museum for the opening night of two new exhibitions! This opening will also launch our annual Winter Blooming Festival\, so it’ll be a night of excitement and celebration! \nABOUT THE EXHIBITIONS\nBoundaries: Transcended\nBoundaries: Transcended celebrates the work of hundreds of people who came together to build tiny ceramic homes celebrating the resettlement of refugees in the Hunter Valley. Now presented at NERAM\, these small-scale structures speak to broader regional conversations about place\, identity\, and what it means to build a home in a new environment. \nPeople built traditional huts from Ghana\, apartments from India\, and humpies from Australia – to name just a few. Others built tents or caravans\, reminding us that all kinds of structures can be a home. Some people build future focused buildings – the architecturally designed home they hoped for when they finished their degree or Australia’s Parliament House – representing the final step on their migration journey: citizenship. For others\, home was not necessarily a house. Temples from Cambodia\, Japan\, and India sit alongside mosques from Mecca and churches from Vietnam. \nRoad Trip: A Residency\nSide Gallery Road Trip brings together a group of artists invited by Side Gallery to immerse themselves in Armidale over an intensive weekend encounter. Designed as both a creative experiment and a site-responsive experience\, the project asked what happens when artists step outside their familiar routines and studio environments to engage with a new place. \nDuring their time in Armidale\, the artists explored the town and its surrounds\, connecting with its landscapes\, rhythms and communities. They toured the New England Regional Art Museum with Director Rachael Parsons\, gaining insight into the region’s cultural context through both gallery and collection encounters. Conversations with local artists from Armidale and Walcha further grounded their experience in the lived realities of regional practice. The resulting works capture a range of personal and material responses to place\, shaped by exchange and the distinctive character of the New England landscape. \nEVENT INFORMATION\nDate: Friday 21st August\nTime: 6pm – 8pm\nLocation: New England Regional Art Museum\nCost: FREE

SUMMARY:High Country Theatre's performance of "Lonely Love"
DESCRIPTION:Lonely Love \nAre you fascinated by the way power operates in our society? Do you look at the Capitol riots and wonder HOW one person’s truth can so strongly influence the behaviour of others to the point where some were willing to kill? I have used the theatre of the absurd genre to present a story based on the lives of two families; to create a world that explains WHY one person might want to believe something and why others around her might want to believe her truth\, no matter how absurd that truth might be. Is my truth reality? Is your truth reality? \nSexual abuse is discussed so please be aware if this might be a trigger for you. \nAuthor: Margaret Sims \nDirector: Penny Dalgleish \nProducer: Gordon Cope
