I Believe In This Exhibition/Opening

I Believe In This Exhibition/Opening

4 June - 18 July
6:00pm
Bank Art Museum Moree

*I Believe In This* is an exhibition grounded in faith. At the centre of the exhibition is the act of belief itself — spiritual and personal. Featuring many works never publicly shared until now by legendary Kamilaroi artist Ellen Draper, a founding patron of the gallery with long-standing ties to Moree, *I Believe In This* positions art as an act of commitment and invites audiences to consider belief as something lived, declared and sustained. Artists: Ellen Draper Biographies: Ellen Draper is a Kamilaroi artist with long-standing ties to Moree, recognised for painting that brings together story, place and spiritual imagery. Her work is associated with the St Pius X Mission/chapel context in Moree, including commissions and collected works connected to that site. She is also documented within NSW collection and exhibition histories, including Boomalli Aboriginal Artists activity connected to Moree. 

Traces of the Hand Exhibition/Opening

Traces of the Hand Exhibition/Opening

4 June - 5 September
6:00pm
Bank Art Museum Moree

Traces of the Hand is shaped by touch, time and shared making. Bringing together ceramics and mixed-media works developed through the Moree Arts Community Centre, the exhibition reveals the quiet language of process — impressions held in clay, gestures repeated, materials patiently transformed. Across fibre, sound and light, each work carries traces of both individual attention and collective care. Grounded in place and community, the exhibition reflects growing confidence and experimentation among regional artists, offering an intimate encounter with making as a meditative act and a source of connection, wellbeing and shared strength. Artist: Moree Arts Community Centre Biography: The Moree Arts Community Centre (MACCI) supports inclusive, community-led creative practice across ceramics, weaving, installation and mixed media. MACCI works closely with Kamilaroi/Gamilaroi artists, whose cultural knowledge enriches the region’s creative life. MACCI provides hands-on art programs that nurture personal growth, confidence, intergenerational learning and community wellbeing.

The Bleakley Collection

The Bleakley Collection

23 April - 18 July
Time TBC
Bank Art Museum Moree

The Bleakley Collection First Nations objects is an exhibition of objects and artworks that are part of BAMM’s Collection. Collected by Robert Bleakley during his tenure as Head of Tribal Art at Sotheby’s in the 1970s, this significant collection of Aboriginal objects offers a rare opportunity to engage with the material culture of First Nations communities from across Australia. Comprising carved tools, ceremonial objects and early examples of cultural exchange, many of the objects were originally taken to Britain by colonial travellers as 'souvenirs'.  The collection invites critical reflection on histories of collection, displacement and the enduring cultural knowledge embodied in each object.  First Nations objects, Robert Bleakley Collection
