IAVA @ University of Wollongong
IAVA has the opportunity to exhibit at UOW thanks to an approach made by Diana. The Uni has advised: ...IAVA is booked into the March slot for the TAEM (The School of Arts English and Media ) Gallery 2020 on the proviso that dates are a bit fluid until the Faculty is certain of its 2020 program...
This is a great opportunity for IAVA members. We'll be keen to roll out some small-group workshops to develop ideas and responses for the show. More details as they come to hand.
