The Greek Australian Cultural League (GACL) is having its 13th annual group art exhibition Antipodean Palette, which aims to showcase the artistic creations of artists with Greek descent or with links with the Greek Australian community.

On show will be the work of twelve artists, some of whom have participated in previous Antipodean Palette exhibitions.
