The blurb for the exhibition














I CAME HERE TO STAY.....
This photographic exhibition has been created to document the history of people, both young and old, with an Italian background, who have lived and still live in Queensland. The several participants have expressed their personal experiences and adventures through historical and contemporary images.

The show, organized by Simona Albanese, promoter of Italian art, culture and language, with the assistance of Monica De Nardi, personalized travel manager and art photographer, will be on display during the Italian Week (26 May-2 June) at Vapiano restaurant.
