Talking Tender exhibition oepnating at Warburton Waterwheel on Saturday 5 October



Talking Tender is a month-long art exhibition and events program exploring themes of death, dying and funerals in the gallery at the Warburton Waterwheel.

It is being hosted by Tender Funerals Greater Eastern Melbourne – a community-based initiative working to establish a not-for-profit service in the Greater Eastern Melbourne area.

The ‘Exploring Death through Art’ exhibition is a collection of multi-media works created by Little Yarra Steiner School student Amber Hamer for her Year 12 Independent Project. Alongside artworks, a free events program of talks and workshops will be offered to encourage community conversations around end of life choices.

The Opening Reception will be on Saturday 5 October from 1pm.
