We we’ll be travelling to the Flying Duck Hotel with a number of our Match Box Walking Windows filled with matchboxes that delightful Melburnians have created.

In addition to this, we are inviting guests to bring along something small and light for one of our time capsules. (not necessarily small enough to fit inside a matchbox) The theme is “Melbourne 2009”. Items selected must be suitable for international travel (eg no food, soil, broken glass, liquid, sharp edges, explosives etc.) and something that will last for at least 30 years!

We will also be screening works featuring photos we have taken during our travels to Melbourne over the past year and of our recent journeys to other national/international destinations.

If you are in Melbourne please pop by anytime throughout the afternoon, it would be great to see you - friends are welcome too.

If you have any questions, please phone 0419 388 108

NB: We will be accepting matchboxes on the day as well, so if you have yet to contribute your matchbox please feel free to bring it along. Instructions for your box can be found at

Putting Sydney ARIs on the Map..starting now -12-24 March

GAFFA GALLERY, 7 Randle St, Surry Hills 2010

Mon-Fri 12pm-6pm Sat 11am-6pm

www.gaffa.com.au

Artist-run initiatives (ARIs) are incubators for emerging artists and the art stars of the near future. Run by visual artists, curators and writers, ARIs range from galleries, art spaces and residencies to publications and temporary events. No matter what form they take, ARIs support the work of local and international contemporary artists, taking you directly to the source of the city’s most cutting-edge artistic output. Over 2009 we will be creating projects bringing focus to these ARIs which includes creating a map and guide to 26 Sydney ARIs - the map will be available from featured ARIs and Avant Card distribution points, as well as online.

FREE ARI WALKING TOURS

We hope you can join us, fellow artists and Directors of Artist Run Galleries/Projects on insights to their work/spaces during our Free ARI Tours.

There are 25+ ARIs in the inner city and inner west of Sydney. We invite you to discover diverse ARIs and independent projects on:

Sat 14 March at 2pm - Surry Hills/Chippendale

Sat 21 March at 2pm - Redfern/Alexandria

Sat 28 March at 2pm - Newtown/St Peters

The tour will be followed by drinks with the artists at ARIs where we are presenting our People to People, Place to Place series we have been working on for the past 3 years.
