Project Information

Description

Arts North West worked with Walcha's Arts Advisory Committee and Walcha Council to install a series of plaques to accompany existing artworks in Walcha's 'Open Air Gallery'. The plaques acknowledge and pay homage to the artists who created the artworks and provide visitors with an informed cultural tourism experience.

This project was made possible by funding from the Foundation for Rural Regional Renewal (FRRR)
