TASMANIAN Aboriginal artist Caleb Nichols-Mansell will deliver a talk at McClelland Gallery this weekend.

selected to undergo a residency at McClelland Gallery’s studio cottage.
Nichols-Mansell said the residency “allows me to continue my work in the space while expanding my networks and connection within the arts and cultural scene”. McClelland director Lisa Byrne said “McClelland looks forward to a significant
First Nations commission arising from this program being realized in 2026.
The talk by Nichols-Mansell, Conduit for Country, will be held at the gallery at 11am on Sunday, 25 February.
