Maggie and the OWLS: Light in Space

Working with Western Sydney and Blue Mountains artists, LIGHT IN SPACE at Penrith Regional Gallery honours the traditions and evolving techniques of lacemaking, which is often seen as more of a domestic, decorative craft than experimental contemporary art practice. The exhibition is a collaboration between local lacemaking collective the Outer West LacemakerS (OWLS) and acclaimed NSW lace artist Maggie Hensel-Brown. They have created installations and displays in each room of Lewers House Gallery, the former home of artists Margo and Gerald Lewers. LIGHT IN SPACE highlights the great breadth and skill of lacework in its many forms, and celebrates The OWLS' 40th anniversary. Together they invite us to see lacemaking with renewed clarity — the stories it tells, the histories behind it, and its future possibilities.

Music for the Soul

Experience an Unforgettable Afternoon of Music & Meditation
Sahaja Yoga Meditation invites you to a truly uplifting event, featuring world-class Hindustani classical music and a unique experience of true meditation.
Rhitom Sarkar is an internationally acclaimed Hindustani Slide Guitar virtuoso.
A top-grade artist with All India Radio (AIR) and a disciple of music master Pt. Debashish Bhattacharya, Rhitom has earned numerous accolades, including the prestigious ‘Sur-Mani’ award from Sur Singar Samsad, Mumbai.
Blending the traditions of Hindustani slide guitar with the elegance of classical Spanish guitar, Rhitom creates an enchanting fusion of Eastern and Western melodies. His performances weave a rich tapestry of ragas and talas—evoking deep emotion, awakening the spirit, and resonating with the soul’s deepest rhythms.
Some of the ragas will take you on a meditative journey, setting the perfect atmosphere for a short, guided meditation session.

Sahaja Yoga is a simple yet profound meditation method that effortlessly integrates into daily life, bringing emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual balance.

Join us for an afternoon of music, meditation, and inner peace—an experience that will stay with you long after the last note fades.

A cultural experience
