Be a part of the development of an experimental cultural embassy. Supported by Creative Australia through the new Creative Futures Fund, a group of Australia’s most innovative artists and creatives will explore Lutruwita/Tasmania’s unique connection to Antarctica, and what it means to be one of the world’s five Antarctic gateways. As this project unfolds, we invite you to step inside the cosy station common room of Davis Dome — an inviting meeting place for conversations between the participating artists and the public, where visitors can take refuge from the cold and be part of the discussion around what a cultural embassy should be.
