RST Apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people 2021.
Following a well attended landscape painting demonstration by celebrated Tasmanian artist Darren Meader on 18 January, internationally renowned and award-winning botanic artist Lynne Uptin OAM will be setting up her easel in full view of visitors to the Royal Society of Tasmania’s Hidden Treasures exhibition at Woolmers Estate, near Longford, on Sunday 1 February from 11am.
It’s the opportunity to meet Lynne and watch her work against a backdrop of the masters of the 19th century. Hidden Treasures features rarely seen artworks from the Northern Midlands from 1820 to 1890, offering a unique glimpse into Tasmania’s rich cultural heritage.
These painting demonstrations are part of a series of weekend events taking place alongside the Hidden Treasures exhibition, which runs until 22 February.
There is a $5 entry fee for the exhibition, events included. Pre-bookings are through https://www.trybooking.com/DHXOL but people can also pay on the day.
Visitors can take home a full-colour illustrated exhibition brochure for $10 and participate in a silent auction for high-quality digital reproductions of the artworks displayed. Merchandise is also available for sale.
The Royal Society of Tasmania acknowledges, with deep respect, the traditional owners of this land, and the ongoing custodianship of the Aboriginal people of Tasmania. The Society pays respect to Elders past, present and emerging. We acknowledge that Tasmanian Aboriginal Peoples have survived severe and unjust impacts resulting from invasion and dispossession of their Country. As an institution dedicated to the advancement of knowledge, the Royal Society of Tasmania recognises Aboriginal cultural knowledge and practices and seeks to respect and honour these traditions and the deep understanding they represent.
On 15 February 2021, the Royal Society of Tasmania offered a formal RST Apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people 2021.
