The smallest gallery in the Southern Hemisphere is celebrating its tenth year. This month it’s providing a taste of the Brunswick Nature Sculpture Walk (September 28 – October 2) with the display of Lynne Adams and Tony Butler’s work Plastic Sea Treasures.
‘It’s anticipated that soon there will be more plastic than fish in the ocean,’ said curator Dev Lengjel.
‘We are so worried about the ocean and it is up to us to make decisions about what we do with our rubbish,’ said Tony and Lynne.
‘We have to make the changes ourselves because big business and government aren’t doing it.’
Drop into the lobby of Byron Shire Council Chambers in Mullumbimby and take a peak yourselves.

A note from the editorial team

“The Echo has never underestimated the intelligence and passion of its readers. In a world of corporate banality and predictability, The Echo has worked hard for more than 30 years to help keep Byron and the north coast unique with quality local journalism and creative ideas. We think this area needs more voices, reasoned analysis and ideas than just those provided by News Corp, lifestyle mags, Facebook groups and corporate newsletters.
The Echo is one hundred per cent locally owned and one hundred per cent independent. As you have probably gathered from what is happening in the media industry, it is not cheap to produce a weekly newspaper and a daily online news service of any quality.
We have always relied entirely on advertising to fund our operations, but often loyal readers who value our local, independent journalism have asked how they could help ensure our survival.
Any support you can provide to The Echo will make an enormous difference. You can make a one-off contribution or a monthly one. With your help, we can continue to support a better informed local community and a healthier democracy for another 30 years.”
So cool…just like this couple!
