Maruku artists and senior knowledge keepers Billy and Lulu Cooley will demonstrate carving and burning new works, then tell stories of their desert country over a cuppa.

PhotoAccess, Manuka Arts Centre, 1pm-4pm, this Saturday, July 6, all welcome.

“Maru-ku: Belonging to Black,” will continue in the PhotoAccess Huw Davies Gallery until Saturday, July 13.
