EXHIBITIONS Burrinja & Jarmbi Galleries open 7 days from 10.30am-5pm 2008 New Media and Photographic Art Burrinja Gallery ABORIGINAL ART ACROSS AUSTRALIA Key works from the Burrinja – Shire of Yarra Ranges Indigenous Collection Exhibition until January 2009 Aboriginal art has its roots in a very ancient culture, but artists today are also expressing issues of social justice, cultural practices and spirituality born from the last two hundred years of colonisation. Curated by Tiriki Onus, this exhibition aims to highlight the vast diversity in Aboriginal cultural and artistic practice across Australia . This feature exhibition includes many significant Collection and loan works that have not been exhibited at Burrinja for over five years, giving the viewer an overview of Aboriginal art from five major regions of Australia . Traditional and contemporary works from both established and emerging artists have been chosen for the exhibition. The artists represented include some of the most internationally respected artists in Australia . Aisling Gheal "bright dream" See Burrinja Current Exhibitions for details Jarmbi Gallery An exhibition of original, vibrant musical images by visual and performing artist, Tracey Roberts. "I have always been fascinated by the various effects of music - the rich diversity of sounds from the many countries of the world, and the vast array of musical genres and instruments we create - as well as the sensual and primal components of the human form and psyche. This collection of work, entitled Resonance, is born out of that fascination and my constant intoxication with the emotion, imagery and synergy created by that magical relationship between instrument and performer. It is also an exploration into the intriguing world of those gifted with synesthesia. As a singer, song writer and performer I am acutely aware of the vulnerability around exposing songs and music that often reflect very intimate and personal thoughts and experiences, hence the recurring themes of nakedness and closed eyes."
See Jarmbi Current Exhibitions for details To Top O Burrinja is turning TEN!

In 1998 the Dandenong Ranges Community Cultural Centre took up residence in the old Sherbrooke Shire offices as cultural centre for the region. Since then we have evolved from the DRCCC to Burrinja. Our tenth birthday is a wonderful opportunity to reflect on where we've come from, what we've achieved and how the community sees our role – past, present and future. http://mercury.drccc.org.au/blog/ By sparing the few minutes to complete our TEN Questions online you can help Burrinja continue to grow with the community into the future and plan for our Birthday celebrations in December 2008. For further information about TEN plus TEN email ten@burrinja.org.au or contact Burrinja BLUE DANDENONGS YOUNG FILMMAKERS FESTIVAL 2009 This year the Festival is focusing on sourcing the best work by the best young filmmakers across the state of Victoria , creating a space that recognizes and supports our brightest young local talent.
