A piece of art work created by the late and Ray Lowe is on display in the window of 25 Deakin as part of the ongoing 'White Cube' exhibition.

There will be an artist's walk tomorrow on Saturday the 17th of December - if anyone is interested in attending, the walk begins from 25 Deakin at 10am.

It is with immense sadness that we say good bye to our friend Ray. We all have a beautiful Ray story to tell – you brightened up our lives! We were all privileged to have shared your life and your love.
