Webbing the Islands Relaunched










The Webbing the Islands website has been beautifully redesigned by Helen Bordeaux and features the Webbing the Islands Units of Learning developed by the Tasmanian Department of Education's Centre for Extended Learning Opportunities.

The Units of Learning provide educational activities that explore island lives, cultures and environments across 9 themes.

The site was relaunched on Friday 24th March by the Tasmanian Minister for Education, the Honorable David Bartlett MHA.

POWER launch

The Power project DVD was launched at the Moonah Arts Centre on Saturday 21st April, as part of National Youth Week. The DVD collects together the animations, films and a selection of drawn and documentary images resulting from the workshops held by Kickstart Arts in partnership with Pulse Youth Health Centre, Cosgrove High School and South Hobart Primary School.

I worked as one of 8 professional artists employed on this project.
