To help readers keep up with what is happening in the States, we’ve assembled a list of links with some hints on projects to look out for and think critically about:
- NSW: 27 unpaid Anzac ambassadors; 12 artists currently in Turkey on painting and research trip leading to a travelling exhibition later;
- Vic: three grants programs; commemorative renaming of places; students’ prizes; story-telling;
- Qld: grants programs; students’ prize; cultural heritage program;
- WA: focus on Albany; community grants funded by the WA state lottery; extended commemoration;
- SA: Anzac Spirit school prize;
- Tas.: grants program; register of community events;
- NT: students’ study tour; naming initiative; community grants.
Meanwhile, on the ABC, Conor Duffy investigates the use of the ‘Anzac brand’ (transcript), historypunk has a great collection of commercial uses of Anzac and Michael Brissenden reports that corporate donations to the centenary seem to be lagging.
