As a local Currumbin resident, I am passionate about our community and promotion of the rich natural assets we have in Southern Gold Coast. I am an advocate for ecotourism experience as a way to engage people to care for the environment. I am delighted to be formerly part of the SWELL Sculpture Festival family after a long-standing relationship with SWELL and Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary. We proudly have an Art trail through the Sanctuary in partnership with artists that have exhibited in previous SWELL Sculpture Festivals. I am excited to see art brought to life in a way that is inclusive and accessible for all people.
