The past fortnight’s gone by so fast I can’t believe it’s news time again. So what’s been happening? After having Trevor and Scott here the week before last and myriad meetings about the triumphs, trials and tribulations of the project, last week really launched us back into the day-to-day operations of the work on the ground, forcing us to test the theories we’d discussed against the realities of running a project with such extensive vision from week to week.  

What we’ve tried to do between being away on tours and out bush and planning and organising these trips, as well as producing and managing the website and short community films, is to continue to offer a workshop program in town, aimed at young people and their families, especially Pitjantjatjara people living in town camps. This program has attracted and engaged many inspiring artsworkers and participants over time and has established a creative and dynamic space for all of us to work in.

Alex met with Minister Garrett last week to discuss where this matter was sitting and was delighted to hear things were indeed on the move.
