A reminder to artists across Gunnedah Shire that artworks for this year’s ever popular NAIDOC exhibition are due by Monday, 1 July.

Held across Australia from 7-14 July, 2024, NAIDOC Week will celebrate and recognise the history, culture and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. This year’s theme is “Keep the fire burning! Blak, loud and proud!” and artists are invited to create an artwork – whether it is sculpture, painting or another form of art – to be included in the annual Gunnedah NAIDOC Exhibition.

Submissions can be dropped off at the Gunnedah Bicentennial Creative Arts Gallery.

Submission forms are available on the Civic website – www.thecivic.com.au – and the exhibition will open at 1pm on Friday, 5 July.

The exhibition will continue until 9am, Friday, August 9, when artists can collect their works.
