The Forum presented emerging and established Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander photographers and photo-media artists with the opportunity to join key photo-media industry specialists, artists and educators from across Australia.
A series of presentations and workshops ran over two and a half days enabling Indigenous artists and photographers to further develop industry and technical knowledge, whilst networking with artists and curators from across Australia. This forum was free to attend for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists.
