SUMMARY:Stand Out by Tara Mathews
DESCRIPTION:Stand Out is an exhibition by local young artist Tara Mathews. Using bright colours and a distinctive style\, Tara dedicates their exhibition to the queer women and gender-diverse individuals who feel like they don’t fit in. The artworks visually represent the alienating feeling of not quite fitting the mould\, but also the solidarity in knowing that there is a whole community of people who are facing the same struggle. While it is challenging to feel different from those around you\, these differences are what make you unique and allow you to stand out. \nShowing at Airtime flags\, an outdoor exhibition space at Altona Meadows Skate Park that showcases works by young artists from Melbourne’s west. \n\n\n“Stand Out is a response to the queer experience of feeling different from everyone around you. In this exhibition\, I aim to visually express the ways that I\, and others like me\, feel out of place\, while also reaffirming that even though queer people can feel like they don’t belong\, there is a whole community that experience the same feelings. It can sometimes be a struggle choosing either to blend in and act like something you aren’t\, or to make the choice to be yourself and stand out. Even though being different can sometimes feel like a burden\, it is those differences that make you who you are.” – Tara Mathews \n\n\nPresented as part of Midsumma Westside

SUMMARY:Tackers Junior Sailing Program (7 – 12 Year Olds)
DESCRIPTION:Royal Yacht Club of Victoria is the perfect venue for families\, and children in particular\, to learn to sail. The Club understands the importance of quality training for both adults and children. Tackers is a program aimed at giving every junior Australian the opportunity to go sailing in a professional\, safe and fun environment. \n\n\n \nThe Tackers Junior sailing program is a program for primary school aged children 7-12 years of age. Designed around kids\, for kids\, the Tackers junior sailing program seeks to provide a vibrant new approach to sail training that recognises that the learning styles of children differs from those of adults. We also offer Youth OutThere programs for 13 – 17 year olds and Adult keelboat programs for those coming into sailing later in life \n\n\n \nThe program is based around some core values that inform everything that is delivered and communicated about the program. Kids don’t need to have any sailing experience and they don’t need to have their own boat. All the equipment\, including life jackets and boats\, is provided.
