Artist Talks   

Join us from 1pm at Town Hall Broadmeadows on Saturday 1 April as we celebrate local Hume City Artists, Anica Gikovska (The Orbis) and Paul Kalemba (Sticks & Stones), where they will deliver an interactive gallery experience.  

Anica and Paul will speak about the specific themes in their individual works which explore the textures, materials, and significance of the natural world.  

Following the talks, an immersive guided walk through will be delivered by each artist and allow you to gain a deeper insight into them, their process, and their art.
