The Wetlands by Paper Hands
Enjoy the display 'The Wetlands', by local artist Paper Hands, at Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre as part of the Community Art Wall. Paper Hands (Holly Nielson) is a Brisbane-based illustrator. She finds that "… art is a way for me to communicate, reflect and dance with this weird and wonderful life. My artwork is often exploring the power of regeneration, through the connection of nature and the individual." 'The Wetlands' was inspired by the natural beauty of the Boondall Wetlands, a unique and significant nature reserve which encapsulates more than 1000 hectares of tidal flats, mangroves, saltmarsh, hypersaline and grassland flats, casuarinas, melaleuca, eucalypt and rainforest plants. This ongoing display can be viewed from May to September: Tuesday to Friday, 9am-4pmSaturday and Sunday, 9am-12pm.About the Community Art Wall: Located in the Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre, the Community Art Wall is a small, ongoing display which aims to celebrate and promote environmental awareness through art by featuring work from local artists and community groups that reflect environmental themes such as sustainability, biodiversity and connection to nature. If you are interested in displaying your art on the Community Art Wall, please see opportunities for artists.

English linked sword dance
Step into the rhythm of steel and tradition with English Linked Sword Dance.This striking folk dance brings together precision, teamwork, and centuries of English heritage. Dancers move in tight formations, each holding a sword linked to the next, creating intricate patterns, locks, and woven figures that flow seamlessly with the music. The highlight comes when the swords are joined to form a star or "lock," lifted high in a dramatic display of skill and unity.Energetic, powerful, and deeply communal, English linked sword dance is as much about cooperation as it is about spectacle. No solo stars here - every movement depends on trust, timing, and connection with the whole team.Whether you're drawn by history, live music, or the thrill of learning something bold and different, this is your chance to be part of a living tradition. Join us, take a sword, and become one of the links.
