Since May, when Canberra International Music Festi

Since May, when Canberra International Music Festival director Roland Peelman stepped down after a whirlwind 10 years, there’s been a changing of the guard.

Incoming artistic director Eugene Ughetti is a percussionist, composer, performer and conductor with a big name in Melbourne and internationally.

But he’s not well known to Canberrans, although he’s performed here in Gandel Hall during Roland Peelman’s 2016 festival and at Llewellyn Hall, so I took the opportunity while he was in town on a working visit recently to talk to the man who will take the festival in new directions.

With a wife and family and a busy career in Melbourne, he will not relocate to the nation’s capital, but he’s been keeping a very close eye on it.

What better way to start the New Year in the garde

What better way to start the New Year in the garden than with a project of, say, designing and building a sensory garden, says gardening columnist JACKIE WARBURTON.

A sensory garden allows adults and children to explore the space with sound, touch, smell, sight and taste.

Distinguished Prof Susan Scott has always been fas

Distinguished Prof Susan Scott has always been fascinated by gravity and the unknown.

“When I was a small child, humans first landed on the moon,” she says.

“I remember watching that on the black-and-white television and seeing the astronauts leaping around, and I was fascinated by the differences in gravity between the moon and earth.

“As time went on, I got more and more interested.”

Her curiosity has held her in good stead; she was recently awarded the prestigious George Szekeres Medal of the Australian Mathematical Society.

Canberra’s woodchopping association – the Hall

Canberra’s woodchopping association – the Hall and District Axemen’s Club – is rebranding to Capital Country Woodchopping.

“We didn’t want to be exclusively a Canberra association and we deliberately left any gender-specific wording out in the new name,” says president Cheyanne Girvan, 32.

“We also went a different [way] to other associations under NSW by not including ‘association’ in our name.”

Four years ago the Hall and District Axemen’s club’s membership was 25.

Cheyanne says this name change will give the club the versatility to grow into other areas and on to greater things.

It’s a far cry from her days as a flaming redhea

It’s a far cry from her days as a flaming redhead treading the stage in Thoroughly Modern Millie for Canberra Philo in 2008, but Georgia Pike-Rowney is playing a vital role in leading and promoting one of the ANU’s treasures – its Classics Museum.

Pike-Rowney’s contract as the lecturer in classics and curator of the ANU Classics Museum since 2022 has been extended until July 2026, thanks to contributions from the very active Friends of the ANU Classics Museum, who hold regular talks, functions and walk-throughs of the priceless objects collected by the university since 1962.

The announcement of her extension came just in the nick of time, as the ANU’s general refurbishment necessitated Pike and her colleagues packing the entire collection out.
