Happy birthday @Mawsons_Huts! Lovely day to get out and celebrate all things #Antarctica (and give a #penguin a hug!)
Happy #AntarcticaDay! The anniversary of the signing of the #AntarcticTreaty was the perfect date to launch my new book #Brand #Antarctica - published in the @UnivNebPress #Polar series nebraskapress.unl.edu/nebras…
To celebrate #AntarcticaDay we hear from an international panel about #public engagement with #Antarctica - an event hosted by @UTAS_ and @cityofhobarttas
The final speaker is local photographer and Australian #Antarctic arts fellow Dr Martin Walch - he created a time-lapse over 3 months at #Mawson to show movement of humans in this working space + dilation of time and space #AntarcticaDay #Art discover.utas.edu.au/Martin.…
Acting Lord Mayor Helen Burnet moderates the panel discussion. How do you engage people with #Antarctica and make it accessible, while maintaining its perceived mystique? #AntarcticaDay
