Artists from Queenscliff Rural Australians for Refugees are presenting a community awareness exhibition in Geelong, aimed at stimulating change around asylum seeker issues: ‘OUT OF THE DARKNESS’ 11‐19th October 10 am to 5pm. Wesley Church Hall, 100 Yarra Street, Geelong FREE ENTRY The exhibition is presented as a large installation combining paintings, fibres, graphics, photography, sculpture and text. The artists hope that this powerful and beautiful exhibition will encourage us to re‐affirm our commitment to our core values, to honour the UN Refugee Convention that Australia has signed, and to confirm that we, as a humane and caring society, can shine a light in the darkness. This is the fourth installation in a series created by the Queenscliff RAR artists since 2004. These exhibitions travelled throughout regional Victoria and metropolitan Melbourne, attracting many thousands of visitors, and played a significant role in bringing about community awareness and stimulating change around asylum seeker issues. The inspiration for these exhibitions came from witnessing the heartache and despair faced by asylum seekers who had been imprisoned in Australia's notorious Immigration Detention prisons. The first exhibition ,"Pillows of Tears", told the stories of those whose voices could not be heard from behind the razor‐wire. Subsequent exhibitions ,"Beyond Tears" and "Tears from the Heart", focused on other aspects of Australia's refugee policies: the cruel Temporary Protection Visas with no family re‐union; the forced returns to danger; the plight of those trapped in dangerous homelands; and the reasons for seeking asylum. In these dark times where new legislation currently before Parliament, the Asylum Legacy Bill, is designed to strip away the already limited safeguards for people seeking asylum, it is vitally important that we inform ourselves.
