Join us online for the live premier screening of the new short film and launch of the collection of personal memoirs, OUT ON THE FARM. Together, they help capture some of the untold story of the community once living and working on the State Research Farm in Werribee.
The film and memoirs are part of our study that has amassed a multi-media catalogue of the century-plus social history of the State Research Farm, its people and its extraordinary achievements.

Welcome to the newest member of the Arts Assist Advisory Panel, Dr Monika Shott!
Monika is a local writer and researcher.

A community conscience and commitment to social equity and responsibility has led her to serving on various committees and panels, including current director for the Werribee Football Club
The Advisory Panel plays a vital role in the review of Arts Assist grant applications and is made up of Wyndham community members who are passionate about the arts.
Welcome Monika!
