Galah Issue 12

Galah is an independent print magazine documenting regional Australia and the people who live here. Three times a year we publish an award-winning magazine - it's more like a book than a mag - and in between, we work on making newsletters you actually want to read.

Regional Australia has so much more going on than droughts, floods and fires. Let Galah be your guide.

Galah Issue 12 is our 'Earth' issue.  

So much more than dirt, it’s the planet we walk on, the farms we rely on, the backyards we play in. 

Roll up the sleeves and get earthy. Here’s what you'll read about in Issue 12:

• How to turn a humble brick into a work of art  

• The incredible story of Australia’s ‘da Vinci’ 

• One woman’s obsession with frogs and burlesque 

• Rural women and a kitchen-table revolution 

• Insider travel guides to Armidale and Canberra 

• Five generations of wildflower wisdom 

• From inner-city Redfern to a country riverbend 

• Gina Chick and the grandmother she never knew 

• Colour and compost: how to make a meadow 

• Criss Canning on 60 years of still-life painting 

• Belinda Jeffery’s long and luscious autumn lunch

• God goes waltzing with Matilda 

• Plus more art, gardens, books and ideas – Galah style
