Anniversary of first visit is today

My first visit to Broken Hill was seventeen years ago today. I have visited many times since then, but not so far this year. I intend to change that situation ASAP.

Mind you, I visited twice last year, and was there for about a month in total and had, as usual, a fab time.

I see that the Lifeline annual art exhibition is still on, and it's the 30th annual exhibition no less. The exhibition runs until 8 December.

Karrie Lannstrom has an exhibition via Broken Hill Art Exchange (BHAE), as does John 'Jacko' Alty.

Karrie's exhibition is titled "Ocean dreaming in the HeArt of the Hill. It's being exhibited in the Kitchen Gallery at BHAE.

Jacko's major work "River of Time" is displayed in the old saddlery of the Grand Guesthouse, which is presently part of the BHAE headquarters.

Both exhibitions finish this weekend.

See link to BHAE for further details.

Cheers, Jane Deany
