TRIP TO THE MOUNT

2 November 2024 - 19 January 2025
Cathleen Edkins Gallery

Running parallel to Enjoy This Trip, Trip to the Mount takes a deep dive into Mount Gambier of the 1960s through to 1980s. An exciting period in Mount Gambier’s social history, we explore the culture of the region through posters, the music scene and archival footage of the way life was.
