Little Rocket and Lendlease Present: Embers Exhibition

Celebrating NAIDOC WEEK 2024

Theme: “Keep the Fire Burning! Blak, Loud & Proud”

This First Nations art exhibition will take place across two prominent locations: Sydney, New South Wales, and Melbourne, Victoria. Just as embers and little fires sustain the flame, this exhibition offers three distinct art offerings that provide a deeper look into the breadth of First Nations culture.
