THE fourth instalment of the “Illuminating Women” talks will be held in the James Theatre on 20 March.
Hosted by the Dungog-Clarence Town branch of the CWA, “Painting The Past: Exploring Kimberley Rock Art” will be presented by archaeologist Dr June Ross.
Speaking on the continuing series, event organiser Philippa Graham said: “The Illuminating Women series is bringing experts in a range of fields whose reputations are not only national but of international standing.
“These women generously share their expert knowledge, and also talk a little about their own lives.
“This opportunity provides context for our audiences to gain significant insight into what makes these women tick and into their passions and areas of interest.”
Dr Ross has been chief investigator for Australian Research Council projects exploring ancient Indigenous rock art.
She is also an Adjunct Professor of Archaeology at the University of New England and has worked with the Wunambal Gaambera traditional owners in collaboration with four university teams.
Dr Ross will present at 2pm on 20 March at the James Theatre.
Tickets at the door.
