The Australian Tapestry Workshop is delighted to announce a major tapestry Morning Star designed by prominent Australian artists Lyndell Brown and Charles Green for the new Sir John Monash Centre (SJMC) in France.
This tapestry is generously supported by the Tapestry Foundation of Australia, Australian Hotels Association, ANZAC Centenary Arts and Culture Fund, Marjorie M. Kingston Charitable Trust, Calvert-Jones Family, Anne and Mark Robertson OAM, Baillieu Myer AC and Sarah Myer, Yulgilbar Foundation, Chasam Foundation and the Myer Foundation.
The tapestry will provide a lasting legacy in perpetuity commemorating the 46,000 Australian lives lost
in the battles of the Western Front in World War 1 and commemorate the Centenary of ANZAC. The tapestry will take over 4000 hours to weave and will be unveiled at the opening of the SJMC on ANZAC day in 2018.
