Kaldor Public Art Projects is inviting Australians to submit their memories and personal experiences of the past 50 years of art for their new Living Archives project being launched today. The Living Archives project seeks to bring a half a century of art to life through the eyes and experiences of those who have engaged with the 34 Kaldor Public Art Projects presented around Australia.

Living Archives tells the story of the organisation’s legacy through firsthand anecdotes from the visiting public, artists, teachers, art lovers and students who experienced Kaldor Public Art Projects over the past five decades.

Launched as part of a new 50th-anniversary website, Living Archives is an online archive showcasing personal stories and photographs which provide visitors with a rare glimpse into its history. Kaldor Public Art Projects encourages the audience to become part of the archive by submitting their own stories online at 50years.kaldorartprojects.org.au.
