Last Friday, the UWS Vice Chancellor Prof. Janice Reid opened the biannual University of Western Sydney Sculpture awards and announced the winner, Louisa Dawson for her scupture New Arrivals. The VC phoned Ms Dawson in London during the opening ceremony to tell her the exciting news.
The sculpture awards have become a real  cultural event in the Campbelltown region. More can be found at http://virtualtours.uws.edu.au/sculptureaward/sculptureaward2012#audio. Excerpt below:
 The campus landscape - open space, rolling hills, lakes and vegetation - is an ideal setting to display large outdoor sculptures. The UWS Sculpture Award showcases major works by significant Australian artists, some of whom have created sculptures especially for the University's Campbelltown Campus.
The UWS Sculpture Award and Exhibition aims to establish closer links between the University and artists, and engage with the community by providing a valuable educational and cultural resource, as well as enhancing the campus environment for teaching and learning.
