Acknowledgements for The Re-Authoring Impulse and Decade of Catharsis Exhibitions

Congratulations fellow Epicormia Collective artists Paul Andrew, Marion Conrow, Jeremy Hawkes, Julianne Zoviar Clune & Julie Barratt, for your participation in our fine exhibition ‘The Re-Authoring Impulse’. Shown concurrently with Willowbank Studio’s ‘Decade of Catharsis’ exhibition, Opening Night was held at Northern Rivers Community Gallery Ballina, November 24 with between 350-400 people counted in attendance. Many guests were heard commenting on how approachable all participating artists were on the night with a great time had by all.

Acknowledgments are also gratefully made to funding bodies;

Arts NSW, Lifetime Care & Support Authority (LTCSA) – Administered by Accessible Arts (AArts) and to the wonderful staff and volunteers from Northern Rivers Community Gallery, Ballina.

A huge thank you to our legendary and very efficient Epicormia Collective co-ordinator Paul Andrew, for doing such a fantastic job of developing submissions to galleries, organising and supporting all participating artists (including myself) over the previous eighteen-month lead in to our exhibition.

Also thanks to the noble group of Acquired Brain Injury survivors who have attended Willowbank Studio over the past ten years and shown not only your support, but tolerated me ‘cracking the whip’ in preparation for exhibition.
