The National Tribune: Qtopia Sydney announces partnership with National Art School

Qtopia Sydney and the National Art School (NAS) are proud to announce a partnership to realise a restaging of St Vincent’s Hospital’s Ward 17 South.

The installation will be curated to coincide with Sydney WorldPride 2023 from 17 February – 5 March 2023 at NAS’ Darlinghurst campus, featuring historical and archival objects, imagery, video, and audio to tell some of the stories of this significant period within Australia’s history.

“This space will serve as a reminder of the journey and obstacles the Queer community has both faced and overcome in recent decades, particularly with its proximity to St Vincent’s where I, among many, was treated for HIV/AIDS.

“The support of Steven Alderton and his Board is truly to be applauded and we are incredibly grateful for their foresight and genuine interest in our objectives,” Mr Polson concluded.
