EmbRACE Harmony Forum

This is one of the four large murals based on ideas from the workshop and reproduced for advertising in local bus stops and for inclusion in the information package.

Project Summary

Randwick City, Botany Bay, Waverley and Woollahra Councils collaborated to implement a discussion forum, workshop and activities day involving young people from High Schools in their respective Council areas. The Forum program included: presentations from young people about their experiences of racism; performances by a theatre group and drumming group; and workshops covering art, media, theatre, radio and Sulha (focused listening). Ideas and materials generated were then used to produce anti-racism publicity tools and materials and a schools information package. The materials and tools produced were: Anti-racism slogans; four large murals based on ideas from the workshop and reproduced for advertising in local bus stops and for inclusion in the information package; a print media template for use by students to produce articles for the press; Anti-racism wristbands and temporary tattoos for distribution in the information package

    "Cities must trade in cultural cringe for a growing sense of confidence in our distinctiveness. They must try to be somewhere, not anywhere in the extended global sprawl of electronic suburbia. Cities must wilfully believe that the unique combination of events that may fuse here is just as compelling as those that may fuse somewhere else. Cities need to involve their people in making and remaking their own mythology, and create something that is truly unique." Marcus Westbury
