This event is held as part of the 'Dear Agnes' contemporary public art program featuring site-responsive works by 12 artists and collectives for nine days over three weeks (Friday 10 March – Sunday 26 March 2023) at the Truganina Explosives Reserve, Altona.

The projects artworks and public programming pay homage to local landscape-inspired themes and 'A Forest for Australia' (1998), a land sculpture by one of the world's leading environmental artists, New York-based Agnes Denes at the Greater Western Water site on Queen Street, Altona Meadows.

'Dear Agnes' is presented by Hobsons Bay City Council in partnership with Deakin University, RMIT University and Greater Western Water.
