Join us for our August artist talk presented by Christine Dauber, where she will be discussing the life of Leona Victoria (Waldie) Metcalfe nee Nicol (1915-1989).⁠
In many ways her life was not remarkable, yet when we look to the times in which Leona (Nona) lived and at what she did achieve, it is time to reconsider these achievements within their context. ⁠
⁠
This talk will be held at Petrie Terrace Gallery on Sunday, 17th of August from 2pm to 4pm.⁠
⁠
Ticket Prices:⁠
- $5 for RQAS Brisbane Members⁠
- $15 for the Public⁠
⁠
Although this is a member`s gathering, all are welcome to attend! Make sure to book your ticket via the Humanitix link, as spaces are limited!⁠
