The ANU School of Art & Design (ANU SOA&D) is pleased to announce the continuation of the Bundian Way Arts Exchange project in 2020. We invite members of the ACT community to a public information session to hear more about how to become involved in this exciting opportunity for cultural and creative exchange. The session will clarify the Expression of Interest process for the 2020 BWAE Field Program.  

Led by Dr Amanda Stuart and Ms Amelia Zaraftis, the Bundian Way Arts Exchange comprises learning events in Canberra and a structured creative field program. It includes visits to areas along the Bundian Way; a shared historic pathway which has been used by Aboriginal people for millennia, linking Targangil (Mount Kosciusko) with Twofold Bay at Eden on the Far South Coast of NSW. Dr Stuart and Ms Zaraftis, awarded the Australian National University Vice-Chancellor’s Award for Reconciliation in 2018, will talk about the overarching aims and purpose of the project, reflect on the 2019 Bundian Way Arts Exchange Field Program and announce upcoming associated exhibitions and public events.
