"Community in a time of change"

​​Supporting New England writers and illustrators to create new, original short works

​​​Traditional storyteller, Aunty Kerry Bulloojeeno Archibald Moran has provided us with a personal insight into the central importance of the East Armidale Store (colloquially known as 'the mission shop'), to Aunty's community on anaiwan ghooten country.  

Scientist, writer and textile artist, Dr Mary McMillan explores the ways that COVID 19 has both divided and brought together our regional community. Accompanied by a graphic piece (an embroidered artwork), she illustrates the points of connection, and lines of division, during this time of change.
Click on the links below to read and share these wonderful narratives. Help us to celebrate the emergence of new creative voices in the New England.
Our sista connection to the mission shop
The lines that divide: a regional reflection on COVID-19
Thank you to our incredible community and supporters!
