In order to effect change, you need a groundswell, a groundswell of opinion, a surge of emotion, a desire for new thinking. This exhibition celebrates artists who want to build a groundswell for change whether that be environmental, cultural, personal or political.

This exhibition has evolved from earlier projects celebrating the women who worked together to found the gallery in the early 20th century. Like them, any of the contemporary artists in this exhibition value networks, community connection and participation.

Contemporary local artists include: Arkeria Armstrong, Aunty Kerri Douglas, Melinda Harper, Judith van Heeren , Kate Just, Ruth O'Leary, Anna Read, Anna Schwann and lIka White.
