Katie Noonan.
THE National Folk Festival has today (Monday, February 15) announced that its artistic director for the 2022 festival will be five-time ARIA award-winner, Katie Noonan, a change from the old practice of having local resident director. Noonan is widely known for her excellence in creative programming, through her roles as music director of the Commonwealth Games and artistic director of the Queensland Music Festival.
THE new “Little Darlings” Youth Portrait Prize 2022, at the National Portrait Gallery, is for students only, with four separate categories across kindergarten to year 12. Responding to the theme “identity”, young artists can paint, draw, photograph, print or combine all of these to make their portrait. Three winners will be chosen from each category by a panel of judges including NPG director, Karen Quinlan.
