Opening on July 28 at the John Curtin Gallery the Higher Degrees 17 exhibition will feature works from a number of postgraduate students graduating Higher Degree by Research.

A series of children’s artworks will be showcased at the university in August.
Featuring art by children aged three to five-years-old the art was created using recyclable materials with a focus on sustainability.
The works will be part of the Emergence exhibition and will include sculptures, collages, silk screening and fibre textiles.
