In 2008, FORM launched the Let's Get Started! program, offering painting workshops for Indigenous Artists living in South Hedland. Since then, the group has been coming together every month for week-long sessions with mentors Helen Ansell and Sara Barnes.
The Spinifex Hill collective is currently composed of 15 artists, creating beautiful, unique and accomplished work. They have already developed both a recognisable style as a collective, and distinct individual styles.

Once again working within our theme of “Before the Town Got Big”, the group went to visit Dalgety house in Port Hedland run by the historical society to gain some insights into the stories and buildings of 1886 to the 1960’s -a great afternoon and some very interesting discussions on the bus and back at the studio raised more memories and material for the exhibition.
