Hello – welcome to the online world of Big hART’s GOLD project.
BIG hART has been finding gold in the Murray-Darling Basin since 2006. This gold is in the form of stories, photo-
graphs, music and films about the social impact of climate change on farming families and young people.
"It's not about the survival of the farm. It’s the survival of the family."
Farmer - Boree Creek
The gold we unearth comes from people willing to share their stories of survival, resilience, heartbreak and love during the worst drought on record.
These stories are shaped and refined into fine jewels in the GOLD Lab. This process is displayed throughout the website and will inform a variety of presentations over the coming years including exhibitions, performances and conferences and in the media.
GOLD has many layers, involving film, photography, music and theatre making as well as education, skills development, crime preven-
tion, social justice, community development and participation, and policy research.
We invite you to have a look around and say hello in our GOLD Conversations.
