Monash Affordable Art Exhibition

Michael GALEA (South-Eastern Metropolitan) (10:03): I recently had the great privilege of joining with my colleague the member for Mulgrave in the other place to officially open the Monash Affordable Art Exhibition. This terrific exhibition in its first year showcased lots of local talented artists, and it was great to meet some of the artists.

David Davis interjected.

The PRESIDENT: Order! Reset the clock. I do not think Mr Galea was being provocative. My expectation is that he gets heard in silence. Mr Galea, start from the start.

Michael GALEA: Thank you, President. I did recently have the great privilege of joining with the terrific member for Mulgrave Eden Foster in the other place to officially open the Monash Affordable Art Exhibition at the Mount Waverley Library. It was a terrific event that was attended by many of the local artists. It is a great way for art to become accessible to all members of the community both in the appreciation and indeed for the artists themselves. Thank you to Felicity and the entire team from Monash Community Arts Society for graciously putting on the event and having us there.
