The New Ballroom 7pm Thursday, October 23rd FREE Event - Donations welcome ------------------------------------------------------------------------- WITH THESE ARMS - CD LAUNCH & CONCERT Celebrating the Centenary of the MUA ------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's hard to think of another union in the world that has had so many songs written about it. Is to do with the constant global traveling of sailors? or the multicultural mix of waterside workers? or the union's long history of active interest in Australian theatre, film, art and music? The MUA Centenary CD, With These Arms, is a compilation of songs and poems from many sources, from emails from old LPs and tapes, from CDs, pamphlets, magazines, and books. Performers at the concert include: Peter Hicks, Tim O'Brien, Wendy Lowenstein, Clem Parkinson, Mark Gregory & The Trade Union Choir The New Ballroom 7:30pm Thursday, Oct 30th Entry by donation ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- JABILUKA - A NATIONAL DAY OF CELEBRATION ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The campaign to stop Jabiluka mine has shown all Australians that, by working and walking together with courage, creativity and commitment, we can create a better future for the people and coutry of Kakadu, and the world.
