Dean Perrett Performs at Gifted Country Exhibition Open Event – RM Williams Australian Bush Learning Centre
Fourth generation cattleman, Dean Perrett has lived his life on his family’s bullock fattening property “Bowenfels” near Nanango. When Dean decided to pursue a career in the music industry as well, it made sense that he would become a bush ballad singer/songwriter and traditional country music artist. Over the past 35 years Dean has well and truly earned his spurs as the recipient of 5 CMAA Golden Guitars in a recording career of seventeen studio albums. We are thrilled to have Dean Perrett, whose portrait features in the GIFTED COUNTRY EXHIBITION perform at the opening event.

Living History Cartoon Room @ Gayndah Arts & Cultural Centre
Living History Cartoon Room @ Gayndah Arts & Cultural Centre
The idea for the Living History Cartoon Room was sparked after seeing photos of Brisbane Museum’s Storytellers exhibition which showcases the ‘dark past’ of the capital city (crimes etc) in black and white line drawings within a 3D display.

With financial assistance from RADF funding, the project was pieced together from January to July 2021, working with year 4/5 from the State School, local museum staff and community members. Grade 6 of St Joseph's also were involved creating a youthful view of Gayndah now and into the future with 12 paintings which sit alongside the room. School holiday workshops allowed children of all ages to decorate small trinket frames to hold photos from the past. The entire room was hand drawn onto foamcore sheeting and photo card as well as upcycled furniture. The line work was completed by Rachel with contributions from those listed on the back of the forth wall. Local historian Cynthia Berthelsen was […]
