The Living Museum- A site of Conscience

Last month the Assemblage Sisters had the pleasure of working for the Living Museum at Addi Road. The Living museum hosted a large group of students who toured the historic Addison road community centre.

The focus of the students' visit was Social Justice - Food Security and Food Waste. Students visited the Food Pantry , Community composting team Hobo Gro everything in between.

The Addi Road Food Pantry is a low cost affordable grocer that rescues fresh fruit, vegetables, bread and other good quality food from being thrown into landfill and passes them on at highly affordable rates to the community.

Their mission – to rescue food and fight hunger.

The Addison Road Community Centre is home to a vast array of community groups, all providing invaluable services to the community. The Assemblage Sisters always enjoys our visits to Addi Road and the opportunity to work with the passionate and professional team at the Addi Road Living Museum.

The process of making art. Lessons in life.

Inspired by stained glass windows, L aged 7, has planned and created this pony painting. Taking time to arrange ideas and organise materials before realising the final art work is an important and transferable skill. Children often rush their work because adults rush them. Let's give them time to learn and enjoy the process. Here L has also learned about colour mixing and values, composition, brush techniques. ...and had fun doing it.

We love community events. We always meet so many lovely people. The crew at Inner West Council and the Summer Hill Community Centre we so welcoming. Thanks to all involved. We made Mandalas A big shout out to the Bill Crews Foundation for a cracking BBQ. The team at 3 Bridges were keen to get making. And a special mention to all the lovely families we met on such a beautiful day.
