SUMMARY:Sunday Sketch Sessions at BRAG
DESCRIPTION:Head to Bathurst Regional Art Gallery (BRAG) every Sunday for a FREE\, self-guided sketch session in our current exhibitions! \n– Materials and stool provided\n– FREE\, self-guided session\n– No experience required \nAbout the Exhibitions\nWe Are Studios: Acts of Inheritance\nActs of Inheritance presents new work from seventeen Disabled artists who explore identity as something lived\, layered and continually remade. We come to know ourselves through small\, everyday acts and performances – our own and those of others\, families\, cultures and communities as they leave their mark upon us. Some artists revisit family stories or inherited acts; others reflect on Disability\, mental health\, and shifting perceptions of self and how we perform it. Here\, inheritance is not fixed or predetermined\, but enacted through the choices we make\, the stories we tell and the ways we show up for one another. Through these works\, Acts of Inheritance invites us to imagine identity as something performed in ongoing dialogue between who we have been\, who we are becoming and the worlds that shape us. \nWe Are Studios is a 100% Disability-led\, artist-run initiative empowering Disabled Western Sydney artists to thrive. \nArtists: Aili Brenton\, Virginia Bucknell\, Ria Cirera-Cruz\, Taylah Devlin\, Holly-lee Dickson\, Georgina Evans\, Nina Frankie\, Leanne Larwood\, Timothy W. Martin\, Grazia Napoletano\, Adrienne Proud\, Rebecca Sciroli\, Kiri Smith\, Jane Thatcher\, Miah Tito-Barratt\, Jordan Valageorgiou\, Eden Young. \nCurated by We Are Studios Collective. \nThe project is supported by the New South Wales Government through Create NSW and by the Australian Government through Creative Australia\, its principal arts investment and advisory body. \nLiz Bryan: Pattern Recognition\nLiz Bryan is a visual artist and designer working across drawing\, painting\, textiles\, sculpture and digital media. Her practice is shaped by an ongoing interest in esoteric knowledge\, mythologies and ritual\, and engages with themes of womanhood\, place\, and the hidden or overlooked histories of feminine experience. Moving fluidly between art and craft\, Liz’s work also reflects on the intersections of science\, mysticism and material knowledge.\nFor Pattern Recognition at BRAG\, Liz presents a body of work that explores the microcosmic world and the underlying geometry inherent in biological structures. Informed by sacred geometry and esoteric traditions outlined in Plato’s Timaeus\, the exhibition draws on the symbolism of the five Platonic solids—earth\, water\, air\, fire and ether—as metaphors for both physical and metaphysical systems. The relationship between microcosm and macrocosm\, particularly as seen in DNA structures and natural patterning\, underpins the work. Through this work Liz explores the esoteric potential of shape\, line\, colour and form. Historic textile motifs\, including ogee forms and repeating half-brick patterns\, further inform the visual language of the exhibition. Through sculptures and paintings\, Pattern Recognition reveals pattern as a connective force—linking matter\, meaning and the unseen structures that shape our world. \nBathurst Regional Art Gallery is supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW.

SUMMARY:All About Women Festival - Satellite Streaming
DESCRIPTION:All About Women is one of the Sydney Opera House’s flagship festivals\, a day of talks and discussions exploring ever-evolving questions on gender\, culture and equality.   \nWatch three sessions on the big screen at the library\,  using our Bluetooth headphones.   \nProgram dates and details  \nMonday 23 March\, 12.30pm\nZadie Smith\nhosted by Michaela Kalowski  \nLiterary powerhouse and north-west London legend\, Zadie Smith unpacks our cultural chaos with both subtlety and precision. When the best ideas risk being flattened into feed-friendly takes\, she dares us to resist the comfort of simple narratives. \nBuckle up for an eye-opening conversation inspired by her latest essay collection\, Dead and Alive\, which spans politics on both sides of the Atlantic\, cinema\, galleries\, Glastonbury and the question of who gets to make art. With her trademark mix of intellect and irreverence\, Smith unpacks our culture. Expect razor-sharp insight and a reminder that in a fractious\, doomscrolling world\, curiosity is always our best line of defence.  \nMonday 30 March\, 12.30pm\nRaising Boys\nJess Hill\, Zac Seidler\, moderated by Jamila Rizvi  \nFrom Andrew Tate to algorithmic rabbit holes\, this panel will unpack the real forces shaping boys today –  and what parents can do beyond panic and blame.\nBringing up boys isn’t getting any less complicated. One minute they’re sweet\, funny little humans. The next\, they’re parroting some podcast bro who insists “patriarchy isn’t real” and “grindset” is a personality.  Shows like Adolescence and books like The Anxious Generation tapped a nerve. As toxic masculinity is loudly (and often rightly) called out\, a generation of boys is confused and ashamed –  and the algorithm is happy to lead them down dark alt-right rabbit holes. It’s part of the reason the Australian government introduced age restrictions for social media accounts\nSo how do we cut through the bro-fluencer noise to raise resilient\, emotionally literate boys?Investigative journalist Jess Hill (See What You Made Me Do) and clinical researcher and men’s mental health expert Zac Seidler unpack the cultural forces shaping boys today and how adults can guide them with compassion. \nTuesday 31 March\, 12.30pm\nInside the Epstein Files\nEmily Maitlis\, Amy Wallace\, moderated by Louise Milligan  \nThe Epstein Files are not just about one man’s crimes\, but about the systems that protected him and failed women and girls for decades. Calls for the Epstein Files to be released have dominated headlines\, fuelled presidential campaigns and instigated an Act of Congress mandating their release. Despite all that\, to date only about one per cent of the millions of documents\, photographs and other evidence collected in several federal US FBI and Department of Justice investigations have seen the light of day. \nAmerican journalist and writer Amy Wallace collaborated with Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts Giuffre on her memoir Nobody’s Girl\, published months after her death\, while British journalist Emily Maitlis famously put Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on the record about his involvement with Epstein’s dark world. Join them for a critically important discussion that looks beyond spectacle to examine the institutions that turned a blind eye\, the lawsuits now seeking redress and what justice looks like when perpetrators evade consequences but survivors live with lasting harm.

SUMMARY:Walk for Veterans
DESCRIPTION:Walk  for  Veterans \nSunday 29th March 2026 \nMost people have seen the Mt Panorama circuit on TV\, a few have driven around it but not a lot have walked it. Well here’s your opportunity to walk this magnificent 6.2km race-track and at the same time help numerous Veterans. Join us for a unique and memorable experience as we take to the tarmac on foot\, soaking in the incredible views and iconic corners that have made Mt Panorama famous. \nNot only will you get a chance to explore the circuit at your own pace\, but your participation will directly support vital programs for Australian Veterans. Don’t miss this chance to be part of something special while giving back to those who have served. \nApproval has been obtained for us to hold the “Walk for Veterans” event on Sunday\, 29th March 2026 and those walking will meet in Harris Park\, which is opposite the Pit area on the Main Strait\, at 7:30am for a departure at 8:30am\, (new times) before it gets too hot. There’s lots of ways you can participate: \n    Enter on your own and walk the complete circuit yourself\, \n    Get a few mates together and enter as a group with everyone walking the full circuit\, \n    You can participate as a relay group\, with each member walking only part of the circuit and handing off the baton to teammates waiting at designated spots. \n    Bring the kids\, bring the dog (on a lead) but come along and be part of this remarkable experience. \nWhether you’re keen to challenge yourself\, enjoy a leisurely stroll with friends\, or simply want to show your support\, there’s a spot for everyone. Don’t forget to bring your water bottle\, slip on a hat\, and wear comfy shoes to make the most of your day on the track. Volunteers will be on hand throughout the event to assist with directions and provide encouragemen  \nSorry\, no scooters\, no bikes. \nIt’s not a race\, there’s no prize for finishing first; the true reward is the sense of fulfilment you get from completing a meaningful experience and knowing you’ve supported Veterans who truly need your help. \nAfter the walk there will be a complimentary sausage sizzle. \nYou should make a weekend of it\, the Brotherhood Christian Motorcycle Club hosts the magnificent Bathurst Bike Show on Saturday\, the 28th March (see http://www.bathurstbikeshow.com/ ) and the Walk for Veterans takes place at Mt Panorama on Sunday morning. Bathurst will be the place to be that weekend. \nIf you’d like to walk the circuit and help Veterans\, please complete the form here https://www.radschool.org.au/WalkForVeterans/entry.htm   and get it back to us as soon as you can. \nAlternatively\, if you’re unable to make it to Bathurst but would still like to help\, please go here https://radschool.org.au/donate/  and make what would be a  most appreciated tax deductable donation.

SUMMARY:Sunday Sketch Sessions at BRAG
DESCRIPTION:Head to Bathurst Regional Art Gallery (BRAG) every Sunday for a FREE\, self-guided sketch session in our current exhibitions! \n– Materials and stool provided\n– FREE\, self-guided session\n– No experience required \nAbout the Exhibitions\nWe Are Studios: Acts of Inheritance\nActs of Inheritance presents new work from seventeen Disabled artists who explore identity as something lived\, layered and continually remade. We come to know ourselves through small\, everyday acts and performances – our own and those of others\, families\, cultures and communities as they leave their mark upon us. Some artists revisit family stories or inherited acts; others reflect on Disability\, mental health\, and shifting perceptions of self and how we perform it. Here\, inheritance is not fixed or predetermined\, but enacted through the choices we make\, the stories we tell and the ways we show up for one another. Through these works\, Acts of Inheritance invites us to imagine identity as something performed in ongoing dialogue between who we have been\, who we are becoming and the worlds that shape us. \nWe Are Studios is a 100% Disability-led\, artist-run initiative empowering Disabled Western Sydney artists to thrive. \nArtists: Aili Brenton\, Virginia Bucknell\, Ria Cirera-Cruz\, Taylah Devlin\, Holly-lee Dickson\, Georgina Evans\, Nina Frankie\, Leanne Larwood\, Timothy W. Martin\, Grazia Napoletano\, Adrienne Proud\, Rebecca Sciroli\, Kiri Smith\, Jane Thatcher\, Miah Tito-Barratt\, Jordan Valageorgiou\, Eden Young. \nCurated by We Are Studios Collective. \nThe project is supported by the New South Wales Government through Create NSW and by the Australian Government through Creative Australia\, its principal arts investment and advisory body. \nLiz Bryan: Pattern Recognition\nLiz Bryan is a visual artist and designer working across drawing\, painting\, textiles\, sculpture and digital media. Her practice is shaped by an ongoing interest in esoteric knowledge\, mythologies and ritual\, and engages with themes of womanhood\, place\, and the hidden or overlooked histories of feminine experience. Moving fluidly between art and craft\, Liz’s work also reflects on the intersections of science\, mysticism and material knowledge.\nFor Pattern Recognition at BRAG\, Liz presents a body of work that explores the microcosmic world and the underlying geometry inherent in biological structures. Informed by sacred geometry and esoteric traditions outlined in Plato’s Timaeus\, the exhibition draws on the symbolism of the five Platonic solids—earth\, water\, air\, fire and ether—as metaphors for both physical and metaphysical systems. The relationship between microcosm and macrocosm\, particularly as seen in DNA structures and natural patterning\, underpins the work. Through this work Liz explores the esoteric potential of shape\, line\, colour and form. Historic textile motifs\, including ogee forms and repeating half-brick patterns\, further inform the visual language of the exhibition. Through sculptures and paintings\, Pattern Recognition reveals pattern as a connective force—linking matter\, meaning and the unseen structures that shape our world. \nBathurst Regional Art Gallery is supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW.

Calls for the Epstein Files to be released have dominated headlines\, fuelled presidential campaigns and instigated an Act of Congress mandating their release. Despite all that\, to date only about one per cent of the millions of documents\, photographs and other evidence collected in several federal US FBI and Department of Justice investigations have seen the light of day. \nAmerican journalist and writer Amy Wallace collaborated with Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts Giuffre on her memoir Nobody’s Girl\, published months after her death\, while British journalist Emily Maitlis famously put Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on the record about his involvement with Epstein’s dark world. Join them for a critically important discussion that looks beyond spectacle to examine the institutions that turned a blind eye\, the lawsuits now seeking redress and what justice looks like when perpetrators evade consequences but survivors live with lasting harm.

Despite all that\, to date only about one per cent of the millions of documents\, photographs and other evidence collected in several federal US FBI and Department of Justice investigations have seen the light of day. \nAmerican journalist and writer Amy Wallace collaborated with Epstein survivor Virginia Roberts Giuffre on her memoir Nobody’s Girl\, published months after her death\, while British journalist Emily Maitlis famously put Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on the record about his involvement with Epstein’s dark world. Join them for a critically important discussion that looks beyond spectacle to examine the institutions that turned a blind eye\, the lawsuits now seeking redress and what justice looks like when perpetrators evade consequences but survivors live with lasting harm.

SUMMARY:Exhibition Tours // Acts of Inheritance & Pattern Recognition
DESCRIPTION:Join Bathurst Regional Art Gallery for a FREE tour of our current exhibitions every Saturday at 11am! \nAbout the Exhibitions\nWe Are Studios: Acts of Inheritance\nActs of Inheritance presents new work from seventeen Disabled artists who explore identity as something lived\, layered and continually remade. We come to know ourselves through small\, everyday acts and performances – our own and those of others\, families\, cultures and communities as they leave their mark upon us. \nSome artists revisit family stories or inherited acts; others reflect on Disability\, mental health\, and shifting perceptions of self and how we perform it. Here\, inheritance is not fixed or predetermined\, but enacted through the choices we make\, the stories we tell and the ways we show up for one another. \nThrough these works\, Acts of Inheritance invites us to imagine identity as something performed in ongoing dialogue between who we have been\, who we are becoming and the worlds that shape us. \nWe Are Studios is a 100% Disability-led\, artist-run initiative empowering Disabled Western Sydney artists to thrive. \nArtists: Aili Brenton\, Virginia Bucknell\, Ria Cirera-Cruz\, Taylah Devlin\, Holly-lee Dickson\, Georgina Evans\, Nina Frankie\, Leanne Larwood\, Timothy W. Martin\, Grazia Napoletano\, Adrienne Proud\, Rebecca Sciroli\, Kiri Smith\, Jane Thatcher\, Miah Tito-Barratt\, Jordan Valageorgiou\, Eden Young. \nCurated by We Are Studios Collective. \nThe project is supported by the New South Wales Government through Create NSW and by the Australian Government through Creative Australia\, its principal arts investment and advisory body. \nLiz Bryan: Pattern Recognition\nLiz Bryan is a visual artist and designer working across drawing\, painting\, textiles\, sculpture and digital media. Her practice is shaped by an ongoing interest in esoteric knowledge\, mythologies and ritual\, and engages with themes of womanhood\, place\, and the hidden or overlooked histories of feminine experience. Moving fluidly between art and craft\, Liz’s work also reflects on the intersections of science\, mysticism and material knowledge. \nFor Pattern Recognition at BRAG\, Liz presents a body of work that explores the microcosmic world and the underlying geometry inherent in biological structures. Informed by sacred geometry and esoteric traditions outlined in Plato’s Timaeus\, the exhibition draws on the symbolism of the five Platonic solids—earth\, water\, air\, fire and ether—as metaphors for both physical and metaphysical systems. The relationship between microcosm and macrocosm\, particularly as seen in DNA structures and natural patterning\, underpins the work. \nThrough this work Liz explores the esoteric potential of shape\, line\, colour and form. Historic textile motifs\, including ogee forms and repeating half-brick patterns\, further inform the visual language of the exhibition. Through sculptures and paintings\, Pattern Recognition reveals pattern as a connective force—linking matter\, meaning and the unseen structures that shape our world. \nBathurst Regional Art Gallery is supported by the NSW Government through Create NSW.
