    [post_content] => For three decades, Stephen Corsini, Frank Van Haldren and Shane Tunks have been central members of Hands on Studio, Canberra's pioneering disability art studio. Since its establishment, Hands on Studio has provided artists with disability a dedicated space to develop their creative practices, exhibit their work and contribute to the cultural life of the city.

This exhibition celebrates not only the longevity of three artistic careers, but also the importance of sustained creative practice within disability arts. Over thirty years, Corsini, Van Haldren and Tunks have each developed distinctive artistic voices while contributing to the vibrant community that has shaped Hands on Studio.

Together, these artists represent an extraordinary achievement: thirty years of practice within a supported art studio that has championed access, inclusion and artistic excellence. Their work demonstrates the value of community, long-term creative development, and challenges conventional ideas about who makes art and how artistic careers are sustained.

Mon – Fri 9am – 5pm
Sat 12pm – 4pm
Closed Sun and Public Holidays
