Their names are synonymous with desperation, crime and violence.
But at Terror Australis Readers and Writers Festival we ask, Ned who?
Because Australia had buckjumping, cattle-duffing, escape artist women bushrangers too. Like:
- Jessie Hickman, the Wild Woman of Wollemi,
- Mary Ann Bugg, the notorious, craftier companion of Captain Thunderbolt, and
- Tasmania’s own Mary Cockerill.
Capture the spirit one of Australia’s tenacious, daring female bushrangers to win.
The exhibition is open during normal Lovett Gallery hours 10am – 4pm Friday/Saturday/Sunday until 10th November 2019.
