Business Not Usual:
The portraits are on the wall in the Blue Mountains Cultural Centre but in lockdown
The gallery is closed and the exhibition launch and public event will happen later than expected. I will post updates right here, but also watch the Cultural Centre website, Facebook and Instagram. The exhibition will be extended until Sunday, 19 September 2021.
This is a Blue Mountains Cultural Centre Exposé Program exhibition. Business Not Usual has been supported by the Blue Mountains City of the Arts Trust Cultural Grants Program.
Book available now
The Business Not Usual book is available now: purchase here, contact me directly for a book, or find a Blue Mountains stockist.
