The Art Centre exhibition is called

Challenge To Choose.

We acknowledge the privileged position required in order to even begin thinking of challenging the world's injustices - the challenge of making any choice. Thinking of this phrase and its reversal leads to multi-faceted interpretations.

We invite your interpretation, in any art form. Artworks that discuss our challenges, or celebrates opportunities, instigating discussion and ongoing, open-ended dialogue or women can take this opportunity to share your new works.
