RST Apology to Tasmanian Aboriginal people 2021.
Since opening at the beginning of January, the Royal Society of Tasmania’s Hidden Treasures exhibition at Woolmers Estate, near Longford, has been a must-see for visitors, with participants packing out our special series of events, including talks, demonstrations and an Arts and Antiques Roadshow.
Sunday 8 February sees the latest event in the series, with Emeritus Professor Jonathan Holmes taking centre stage at 11am to present his talk on Highlights of Tasmanian Colonial Art, against the exhibition backdrop of rarely seen artworks from the Northern Midlands from 1820 to 1890.
If you can’t join us on Sunday, the Hidden Treasures exhibition 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.
