Chair Exhibition
With Parliament sitting in Burnie, the week of 21st September 2008, the Burnie City Council decided to organise an exhibition and auction of chairs. Sounds a little mundane…But not when each chair on Exhibition has been designed by a member in the House of Assembly! Given that all money raised will be going to Burnie local day facility, Miranbeena, it was a must to be involved in.
Graeme, being a Member of the Denison Electorate since 2002, decided that his chair must represent his Electorate in some way, and enlisted the assistance of Roseneath Primary School Art Teacher, Mrs Helen Watson and students, Maddison Jones and Adam Schofield.

In a considerably short time frame, Mrs Watson & Co, created an amazing collage with key significant landmarks to the Denison Electorate - The Derwent Bridge, James Austin Cottage, The Shot Tower, Wrest Point Casino, Cadbury, Cornelian Bay….the list goes on. One could definitely spend a good few hours making a list of all landmarks visable.
