You are invited to the opening of our exhibition Beyond Sugar Tully at Tyto Gallery in Ingham from 6pm.  The exhibition continues until May 26 – open daily.

This project initiated by the Tully Arts and Cultural Precinct Inc. in 2025 was developed to supplement Tully Sugar 100, an event which marked 100 years of operation for the Tully Sugar Mill. 34 artists worked to a theme which considered all elements of the sugar industry in the Tully region, including the environment, farming, histories, machinery and innovation, the processes of making sugar and the people who are involved.

Funding for a series of workshops led by Dr Anneke Silver was received through the CCRC RADF program to create artist books for this exhibition.
