See off Karla Dickens: Rise and Fall with a celebratory afternoon at the gallery. As part of the festivities we will be screening Two Bob Mermaid (1996) by Darlene Johnson at 2pm. As Romaine Moreton writes (for the National Film and Sound Archive): Two Bob Mermaid is the directorial debut of Darlene Johnson. It is the story of Koorine (Carrie Prosser), a fair skinned Indigenous girl who ‘passes’ – allowing people to think you are white. Koorine dreams of becoming a famous swimmer. The title of the film refers to Esther William’s film Million Dollar Mermaid, a 'two bob’ mermaid creating a correlation between class and dreams. In order to achieve her dream Koorine lets the townspeople think that she is white so that she can gain access to the local swimming pool from which Aboriginal peoples are banned. Two Bob Mermaid is visually stunning, and Johnson manages to tell quite a political story through the eyes of a child, whose innocent tendency to dream is restricted by the political restrictions imposed upon Aboriginal people during the period the film is set (1950s). The banning from swimming pools was a reality for Indigenous people up until racism was outlawed in Australia. Dr Charles Perkins during the Freedom Rides of 1967 encouraged Indigenous people to fight the bans. Indigenous peoples were made citizens of this country after the 1967 referendum.

HONK Oz! Street Music Festival is returning to Wollongong again this summer to celebrate its 10th anniversary. To help mark the occasion, Wollongong City Libraries are hosting a photo exhibition featuring the wonderful costumes, people and spirit of this colourful, inclusive and community minded extravaganza. Founded by members of The Con Artists community band, this free festival has become a cherished local tradition. During the exhibition launch, attendees will hear insights about the history of the event from one of the founding musicians and enjoy a live performance from The Con Artists band. This event is free and while bookings are preferred, drop-ins are also welcome. The photograph featured above is by Paul Pennel. Information Source: Wollongong City Libraries | eventbrite
