Out of the Darkness Cafe Conversations 2021
Compassion Ballarat • March 11, 2021
Have you seen the Art Gallery’s 2021 exhibition, ‘Out of the Darkness’?
Compassionate Ballarat led, in a relaxed atmosphere at The George, a number of conversations to discuss what role the Arts can play in supporting individual and social trauma with questions such as:
- What was your overall response to the exhibition?
- How can creativity, wonder and awe lift us out of our day to day?
- What role might art and creativity play in social healing?
- How can contemporary art galleries and museums contribute to community wellbeing?

The Charter for Compassion recently held its first ever global conference and Compassionate Ballarat was accepted to present. This conference served as a vibrant platform for sharing insights, and actionable ideas to foster a more compassionate and equitable world. You can listen to the presentation on the history and work of Compassionate Ballarat
