The Christmas Show

Overview

If the thought of faux snow, garish mistletoe and other un-Aussie Christmas ornaments leaves you colder than Santa reading the naughty kid’s list in the North Pole, take heart. The folk at 107 Projects – a new hybrid arts space in Redfern – are hosting a distinctly Australian Christmas Show just in time to get you into the festive spirit.

Taking their inspiration from the Australian landscape, 30 local artists will showcase a gorgeous array of decorations, handmade trinkets and gifts that are certain to brighten up the home, or put a smile on a friend’s face on Christmas day.

With the opening night slated to include musical performances as well as sound art pieces inspired by the Australian bush, it’ll only be a matter of time before you’re guzzling a glass of vino and ‘waltzing Matilda’ down the aisles. Two artworks, donated by renowned lighting designer Roger Foley-Fogg, will also be presented on the night.

Opening night Thursday 13th December 6-9pm. Exhibition continues Thursday – Sunday, from noon - 5pm, until Sunday 23rd December. 107 Redfern Street, Redfern.
