In keeping with the themes of Refugee Week, this exhibition showcases posters created by South Australian students from primary to tertiary level that celebrate the UN International Refugee Convention. The artwork communicates the message that refugees are welcome, and contribute to the Australian “family”. The Exhibition is part of a growing visual dialogue describing multiculturalism, anti-racism and human rights, and celebrating cultural diversity.
See the Migrant Resource Centre of SA website for more details on how you can mark Refugee Week and celebrate our cultural diversity.
