Over the last two weeks of July, AACHWA’s Acting Projects Coordinator Grace Connors, was joined by consultants Jenna Dodge and Sharmila Wood, to deliver product workshops with Spinifex Hill Studio and Martumili Artists for the AACHWA-led Make It Real: Product Development Project. In the fourth stage, the project has entered its product development phase. Pilot participating art centres and artists were able to interact with the samples and prototype products created for them. Alongside this, AACHWA was joined by consultant, Emilia Galatis for a workshop at Nagula Jarndu, while online workshops were also undertaken with Warakurna Artists and Tjarlirli & Kaltukatjara Art.
