DUBBO ELDERS FOCUS OF EXHIBITION
Acclaimed photographer Mervyn Bishop was commissioned to take portraits of el- ders with the State Library recording inter- views about their experiences with the loss of language and the way it has impacted on Aboriginal culture and life.

The result is a photographic and oral documentation exhibition opening at the Western Plains Cultural Centre on 27th May at 2pm. The exhibition celebrates the significant commitment and achievements of Aboriginal elders living in Dubbo today, as well as their relationship to traditional language.

The exhibition runs until 3rd September.
