  • Our other #SALAFESTIVAL exhibition :DEPARTURE, TRANSIT, ARRIVAL: STORIES BY JOANNA MAJCHROWSKA Opens on the 4th August- This photographic exhibition aims to highlight happy memories based on personal childhood experience of departure, transit and arrival; the experience of movement from Poland to Australia. Through her father’s photographs Joanna Majchrowska contextualizes part of her personal history, celebrating memories of a life-altering experience.
  • #SALAFESTIVAL We are very excited to host :– SIX MONTHS: WORKS BY SIMONE KENNEDY. The exhibition Six Months re-imagines a pre-natal world, inventing the symbolic bond of mother/child attachment. The Migration Museum offers the Lying in Home, a site that birthed over 1,600 babies between 1880-1909. Through the materialisation of 26 experimental embellished objects, the exhibition will aim to engage the broader public in reflecting on the mother child relationship and time spent at the Lying in Home, a period of just six months. #SimoneKennedy @salafestival
