Overview
Join us for the launch of Garrison.
Garrison brings together historical and contemporary perspectives on conflict, service, and resilience through the City of Townsville Art Collection.
Featuring approximately 70 works, the exhibition spans from Douglas Green’s evocative wartime paintings to powerful contemporary interpretations by Tim Page, George Gittoes, and Jon Cattapan. Honouring our local military and Air Force personnel, these works explore themes of memory, sacrifice, and the human experience of war, offering a profound dialogue across generations.
Doors open at 6pm with official speeches to commence at 6:30pm.
