  • The City of Broken Hill National Heritage Listing the City of Broken Hill Was Included in the National Heritage List on 20 January 2015
    The City of Broken Hill National Heritage Listing The City of Broken Hill was included in the National Heritage List on 20 January 2015. The City of Broken Hill is of outstanding heritage value to the nation for its significant role in the development of Australia as a modern and prosperous country. This listing recognises the City of Broken Hill’s mining operations, its contribution to technical developments in the field of mining, its pioneering role in the development of occupational health and safety standards, and its early practice of regenerating the environment in and around mining operations. Broken Hill is 935 km north-west of Sydney, 725 km north-west of Melbourne and 420 km north-east of Adelaide. The city’s isolated location means the town has developed its own distinctive characteristics expressed in the town’s architecture, design and landscaping. The By 1966 the total ore mined at Broken Hill reached people of Broken Hill have a strong connection to their 100 million tons, yielding 12.98 million tons of lead, heritage and surrounding dramatic desert landscape and are 9.26 million tons of zinc and 693.4 million ounces of recognised for their self reliance and resilience as a remote silver valued at £1 336 million.

  • Broken Hill Gallery Guide 1St Edition
    BROKEN HILL GALLERY GUIDE 1 The Broken Hill Art Exchange is happy to present Welcome to the this updated guide to the art galleries of Broken Hill. The guide attests to the dynamic art scene in Broken Hill the Heritage-listed city of Broken Hill, with a total Gallery Guide population of just under 20,000 people. The number of galleries represents one gallery per approximately 1000 people; a proportion arguably unequalled in any other city in Australia. The task of compiling the information in this guide has been one of the most enjoyable I have undertaken since moving to this wonderful city. It has been a great excuse to get out and about and view some fantastic art, and I have had the opportunity of meeting a group of very interesting and friendly people. Our local artists not only have produced work of exceptional quality but also have fascinating narratives to relate about the production of their art. The details have been checked with the gallery owners and I have sought permission wherever possible to include statements from the artists themselves about their history and inspiration. Any mistakes that have inadvertently crept into this document are purely the fault of the compiler. This is not the first guide to the artists of Broken Hill. In particular I recommend that readers seek a copy of Jack Absalom and Christine Bartley’s beautiful book “Art of Broken Hill: Outback Australia” (available at Jack Absalom’s Gallery). It is important to note that this guide does not include all the artists practising in Broken Hill.

  • Across Australia
    ACROSS AUSTRALIA Grey Nomad Tales PROUDLY SUPPORTING THE NATIONAL BREAST CANCER FOUNDATION 1 Acknowledgements I was aided and abetted in the production of this book by Mike, my loving husband and soul mate. I had the bright idea that a map of Australia at the beginning of each chapter, showing the track we took during that particular trip, would help readers see where and how far we travelled. Well, it was all too hard for me so I enlisted Mike’s help and he did a fabulous job. Thank you, darling. Thank you also to Hema for allowing us to use their wonderful maps. A special thanks to my dear friends and voluntary proofreaders Dawn Brodie and Jan Thorpe. Thank you to Raelene Boyle at Breast Cancer Network Australia for agreeing to be part of my story. Thank you to Kate Brett at National Breast Cancer Foundation for smoothing the way for us to donate all profits for breast cancer research. Before my breast cancer was diagnosed, I worked at two private hospitals in Brisbane, one fully and one partly owned by the Holy Spirit Missionary Sisters. During that time I became acquainted with several of the nuns in that Order. One of those nuns, Sister Sponsa Gosciek, wrote to me following my surgery. It was such a comforting and supportive letter. Sr Sponsa continues to keep me in her prayers. I feel honoured and wish to thank her, from the bottom of my heart, for her unwavering support. Finally, I thank my official editor, Alex Mitchell, without whose advice and suggestions I would have been struggling to bring this book together.

  • Art Galleries Broken Hill
    An initiative of Regional Development Australia Far West Australia's First Heritage Listed City A true outback city in every sense, Broken Hill is a living, breathing time capsule where the great mining prosperity of yesteryear blends seamlessly with a rising modern art scene, all set amid a sprawling desert landscape. It’s a place of huge skies, red rocky earth and a fascinating and internationally significant history. It is, after all, Australia’s first heritage- listed city, and its secrets are just waiting to be discovered. With its roots in the silver, lead and zinc mining industries, Broken Hill experienced great prosperity during the 19th century and the architecture of that period lives on to tell the tale. These days, Broken Hill is a cultural hub, home to more than 30 art galleries exhibiting work inspired by the stunning landscapes of outback NSW and countless museums encapsulating the city’s rich history. This is Australia’s most accessible outback city, so what are you waiting for? Your authentic Australian outback experience awaits. Broken Hill is a beacon for a wide range of Australia's creative types. Broken Hill’s iconic national status is defined by the diverse work of some of Australia’s most creative individuals. For generations, they have drawn inspiration from the city’s larger- than-life history – from mining to social advocacy – and its spectacular ancient setting. Today, the grand dame of the outback continues to be the muse for a passionate community of painters, sculptors, ceramicists, musicians, actors and film-makers. More galleries than pubs There are more than 20 galleries in Broken Hill; in fact, galleries outnumber pubs.
