To celebrate Refugee Week 2025, Syrian artist Miream Salameh co-creates a powerful exhibition with the community, exploring what ‘home’ means to each participant. The results will be displayed at G3 Artspace, Parkdale. We encourage you to make your own artwork to add to the growing display during the exhibition.
Create an artwork to feature in the exhibition! Join a set of free workshops, with artist Miream Salameh, who will share her experience as a Syrian refugee and assist participants to create an artwork that represents what ‘home’ means to you. The workshops will take place at Westall Community Hub, 35 Fairbank Road, Clayton South.
