FOREWORD

It is a great pleasure to be able to contribute to the re-opening of the Pinnacles Gallery in May 2023. After repairs from the 2019 monsoon and re-location of the Thuringowa Library to the old theatre complex, the Riverway Art Centre promises to be a pivotal site of cultural activity, creativity, learning and celebration in the city of Townsville. The centre will provide visitors with a range of services beyond the new state of the arts library and gallery. A new café and community meeting room along with the magnificent lagoon set on the banks of the Ross River make the Riverway Art Centre a great destination to relax and engage with the arts with your friends and family.
