For fifteen years the Australian Migrant Resource Centre has worked with primary, secondary, and tertiary educational institutes to engage young people to contribute to an exhibition centred around refugees and their reception and settlement in Australia.
Each year, hundreds of students from all over South Australia participate, and from their entries an exhibition of selected artworks is curated. This exhibition features students from reception to tertiary years, in public, private, independent, catholic and regional schools. These artworks respond to themes of multiculturalism, human rights, cultural diversity, anti-racism and the welcoming of refugees into Australia.
“In these posters we can see the complete journey undertaken by refugee people as they escape war and conflict in their homelands, to their flight towards refugee camps, their perilous travel by sea, their welcome, sometimes detention, and finally settling and becoming residents in a new land.” – Andrew Hill AM, Project Director
This project is presented by the Australian Migrant Resource Centre in partnership with Adelaide Festival Centre. Proudly supported by Adelaide Festival Centre Foundation, the SA Ministers for Education and Multicultural Affairs, and both state and federal governments.
After showing at Festival Theatre, the exhibition will tour for a year across metropolitan and regional gallery spaces.
