Major Federal Funding for a National Tour
Such exciting news to share – we have received Major Federal Funding for a National Tour of the exhibition ‘Dancing in Fetters: the culture of convict dance’, based on doctoral research undertaken by Dr Heather Blasdale Clarke. Funding of over $129,000 by the Australian Government’s Visions of Australia programme enables the exhibition to tour nationally from late 2021 through to 2024 to six museums! There will be a many opportunities to be involved with public programming to include concerts, workshops, education packs and interactive videos.

We wish to acknowledge the traditional owners of the lands across which the tour travels, and recognise the importance of music and dance in the First Nation’s culture.
