A fresh wave of exciting creative talent could be coming to the UK as Australian authors and illustrators are being offered support to travel internationally to attend events and activities associated with the international publication and promotion of their work.

We are delighted to welcome Mary Fenwick to the board of FANZA. Mary has been a well-known and highly respected member of the New Zealand community in London for over 20 years, with a long record of raising support for Kiwi projects as varied as Kea, University of Auckland scholarships and New Zealand’s WWI museum at Le Quesnoy, France.  

We're thrilled to announce that Mary Strang, FANZA co-chair, has been nominated for the prestigious UK New Zealander of the Year Award 2024. This recognition is a well-deserved nod to her outstanding contribution to the arts and her commitment to supporting the cultural exchange between New Zealand and Australia and the UK.

We are delighted to welcome Jennifer Guerrini Maraldi to the board of FANZA. Jennifer is a leading specialist in the art of First Nations Australians. Following her years as a private dealer, where she exhibited regularly at The Saatchi Gallery and Masterpiece London, she founded JGM Gallery (London) in 2017.
