Last night I had the pleasure of attending the opening of an art exhibition at Waterfront Place in Brisbane City.  The exhibit is called "Pacific Storms" and showcases contemporary works by Pacific Islander artists, and a number of Australians of Pacific Islander heritage.  The exhibition was opened by rugby league legend Mel Meninga, who spoke proudly of his own cultural roots in Vanuatu.

The exhibit is free, and open weekdays until January 2, at Waterfront Place Foyer, 1 Eagle Street, Brisbane City.  Don't miss out!  More information is available at www.beyondpacificart.com.au.
