Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this invitation and exhibition contains images, and names of deceased persons.
On the afternoon of Sunday 10 June 1838, a group of eleven convicts and ex-convict stockmen led by a squatter, brutally slaughtered a group of twenty-eight Aboriginal men, women and children who were camped peacefully at the station of Myall Creek in the New England region. 180 years after these events a group of indigenous contemporary artists created works which explore the issues and complexities of this significant historic event and its aftermath locally and nationally.
