Jewellery is an act of art, craft and design that also lives and breathes on the bodies of those who wear it. This ADC On Tour exhibition, curated by Australian Design Centre, includes the work of 22 artists working in contemporary jewellery in Australia today.

Endangered + Extinct is an exhibition exploring the form and design of various buildings in Australia, through ceramic sculptures by Natalie Rosin. These places are either under threat of demolition or no longer physically exist due to human intervention.
