Titanic The Human Story
2026-03-16 | Northbridge Centre, 30 Beaufort Street, Perth
Titanic. The Human Story is far more than a display of historic items: it is a unique narrative experience, a tale of the people aboard history’s most legendary ship on its maiden and final journey. Travel back to 1912 through photographs, handwritten letters, wayward keepsakes, and other personal belongings, telling countless stories about fates and heroic deeds on board. As you listen to survivor testimonies on your audio guide, you will have a chance to observe recreated interiors of natural size, witnessing the stark contrast between a lavish first-class suite and a humble third-class cabin. Past and present come together in this emotional journey, a trip through time that brings us closer to the truth of the historic Titanic, where reality is stranger than fiction. Get your tickets now for Titanic. The Human Story in Perth!

Crystal People | Joondalup Festival 2026
2026-03-16
There’s something hauntingly beautiful unfolding on the lakes at Sir James McCusker Park – 52 crystalline human figures rising from the water, swaying with the wind and shifting with the light.

Crystal People is a meditation on community, transformation and our connection to the elements, brought to life by French theatrical company Ilotopie. These larger-than-life luminescent sculptures aren’t static installations – they’re living, breathing presences that respond to their environment.

Throughout the day, these figures play with seasonal light and shadow, their forms shifting and multiplying in the water’s reflection. They charge themselves with solar energy, becoming gloriously luminescent as twilight falls, creating an entirely different experience after dark. Crystal People invites you to witness the grace of air, water and light giving life to these human imprints.

This is installation art that speaks to our shared humanity, our relationship with nature and the importance of living in harmony with the elements. Whether you visit during your morning walk, pause during lunch or return as the sun sets to see them glow, each encounter offers something new.

Crystal People transforms your local park into a space of wonder and meaning. For 16 magical days, Joondalup becomes home to these ethereal beings that remind us we’re connected to something bigger than ourselves.

Creating Meaning
✰ Opening Event ✰
Sunday, 4 January
2:00pm to 4.00pm
An exhibition by Richmind and other artists, to promote the benefits of art for all our mental health and raise funds for Richmind WA’s Mental Health Services Art Therapy Program, “HeART & Soul”.

Curated by Richmind’s Principal Artist in Residence and “Creative Therapies Coordinator David Giles
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The HeART & Soul art project began as a simple distraction activity created to support people through the Christmas period, a sometimes difficult and isolating time of year. The obvious benefits of meeting in a safe friendly supportive positive and encouraging space to create art, led to the program becoming ongoing and a new focus of Richmind’s recovery approach and brand.

This exhibition celebrates the numerous and profound benefits art can have on our mental health and the amazing diversity of ways people can express themselves creatively to support their wellbeing. The brief for the artists was “What brings meaning to my life?”
