TJ, Alex and Clark - discussing this thing called "art making"
It was great to see the creative action at the PCYC workshops. Thanks to the efforts of Mark Warner (club President) everyone was keen and ready to get into the art making straight away. During the preceding week Mark had spent some time informing all interested about the project, building up interest and enthusiasm, and when we arrived for the first workshop everyone was quite excited about the project and eager to be involved. After the initial introduction to the project, Gloria presented a couple of short films produced by Karri Ann Kearing Salmon. The films featured local community members from the nearby town of Pinjarra in the dramatic portrayal of local Nyungar traditional and contemporary stories. The films were both humorous and poignant, and provided participants with some new knowledge that will help them to consider the project within a cross cultural context and to better appreciate Nyungar cultural connections to the region.
