May Gibbs Display

It’s 100 years since May Gibbs’ adorable characters found their way into the homes and hearts of Australians, and Parkes Library is celebrating with a free travelling display featuring May Gibbs’ iconic artwork.

The display explores May Gibbs’ early work, the characters of Snugglepot and Cuddlepie, Ragged Blossom and Little Obelia, her process and examples of how the war influenced her work.
