Arts North West is thrilled to announce our upcoming exhibition To My Returning at the Wee Waa Community Arts & Cultural Centre in May 2024.

‘To My Returning’ is a collection of creative recovery responses addressing the 2021/2022 flood events through the power of letter writing. Arts North West engaged artists across the New England North West to produce a body of work reflecting the letters addressed directly to the flood waters. These letters contributed letters and resulting artworks will be included as part of the exhibition.

Exhibition Continues:

The WWCACC is open from 10:00am – 4:00pm every Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday.
