Dr Bronwyn Bancroft’s exhibition The Country Cries Truth opens at the State Library of NSW and we hear from the curator, Cherokee Lord. Born in Mexico, raised in Texas, Natalia Trevino will be sharing her poetry in Embrace Home: four female poets with representations of home at the Stanley Street Gallery, and we preview the event which is presented by Poetry Sydney. Window Dressing is a performance that allows us to indulge the voyer within as eight windows of the Chau Chak Wing Building are illuminated in Haymarket for Vivid Festival, and we hear from the Director, Liesel Baddorek.

Produced and presented by Angela Stretch, from Gadigal country, we acknowledge First Nations peoples as the sovereign custodians of Country, and pay respect to Elders of past, present and to future generations. We acknowledge and value the distinct culture, customs and practices present in the many and diverse tribal nations across NSW.
