Australian Rural & Regional News: Shine on Gimuy 2024 kicks off

The light installations are installed, and following last night’s rehearsal for Calling Country ceremony – Shine on Gimuy kicked off on 3 October 2024 – with a Friday to Sunday program of music, poetry, comedy and conversations and more at the Salt House HQ.

The stunning light installations that comprise the Artstory Light Walk will be in place until 13 October.

The Cassowary (right) is an artwork by emerging Wujal Wujal artist Doreen Collins, with sculpture made by Koah artist Jacob McGrath, who spent 200 hours fabricating this beauty. Merindi Schrieber’s dilly bags (bilge) disks also took around 300 hours – it is a stunning outdoor exhibition.
