Charity Partner - Spinifex Skateboards

10% of all art sales plus a silent auction on the skateboard painted by East Arrernte artist Mary Oliver was donated to Spinifex Skateboards for their First Nations Skate Tours program.

The funds raised from Eight Inch Blunt allowed the 2021 tour to go ahead.

First Nations Skate Tours:

We aim to take 6-10 young people on an annual interstate tour which will provide opportunities for young people to build strong relationships, confidence and self -esteem through physical activity and provide them with experiences which will assist to expand their world view.

Cross-cultural learning and development is a major aspect of this business. Educating and exposing our younger generations to unfamiliar territory is one way of building a positive and respectful future.

Mary Oliver (East Arrernte).

Mary Oliver is an original Keringke artist, she started at the Art Centre in 1987, and has been involved in many of their exhibitions.

Mary paints of a variety of different mediums including silk, paper and ceramics. Her artwork features fine details and clean lines and the use of mirror imaging. Her colours are very earthy and organic.
