An exhibition of young people’s Love Bites artwork has been featured by Channel 7 in Gladstone, Queensland.
The pieces were created during the Love Bites program presented by dedicated facilitators who are part of the Coordinated Community Response to Domestic and Family Violence (CCRDFV) in Gladstone and were displayed by Gladstone Regional Art Gallery and Museum.
