Instant gallery open!
Last night saw the opening of our little one-day exhibition in the old (1896) chemist’s building at Museum Park Period Village. Lots of good people came and looked and sampled the incr-edible spread put on by Tim and Dewi from the Cannery. Special thanks to Peter, Jason, Shannan and Mouse for being the frozen video stars, and to John Totterdell for his filming, editing and projector.

Mouse played banjo blues in what also happens to have once been his great uncle’s chemist shop (!), Jason fronted up with a spectacular edible wildflower bouquet in a Xanthorrhoea (grass tree) stump, and we had visiting special guests from Perth, IASKA’s own Jan Teagle Kapetas and Marco Marcon.
Then this morning it was back in to open up for the Village markets, tucked in between the sausage man and the natural therapies ladies. A big day with an unending stream of curious visitors watching and wondering just what it was they were watching, and remembering times past and asking questions about other things too.
