While hundreds of children were detained at Carrolup, only 17 of the artists have been attributed to works in the collection. Once Known reminds us that each child had a name, a family and a story. These works stand as a testament to the creativity and resilience of the Carrolup children, offering a glimpse into their enduring connection to Country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through the beauty of art and recognition of place and time, these tours will offer a glimpse into the past and remind us of our journey together on a path of Reconciliation. The Tour will encompass the history of the Old Perth Boys\u2019 School in the context of its colonial history and highlight the story of the Carrolup Child Artists and the purpose of the Once Known exhibition.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tours led by Patricia Ryder and&nbsp;Lisa&nbsp;Liebetrau.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tour Dates<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thursdays and Fridays, 31 July to 29 August<br>11am \u2013 12pm<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/events.humanitix.com\/once-known-guided-tours\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Book here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Supported By:<\/strong>&nbsp;Lotterywest, BHP, Brookfield Place, Colgate University, The Navigators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exhibition Details<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4 Apr 2025 \u2013 6 Mar 2026<br>11am \u2013 4pm<br>Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays<br>Closed Wednesdays and Weekends<br>Free entry, open to the public<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:14px\">Header Image: Once known child artist,&nbsp;<em>The&nbsp;Kill<\/em>, 1946-50, pastel and charcoal on paper. 27.9 x 38cm.&nbsp;The&nbsp;Herbert Mayer Collection of Carrolup Artwork.
