Aurora’s April cover is an arresting portrait of Mary, the mother of Jesus, by a gifted local artist. Shirley McHugh introduces a talented actor (and former student of St Francis Xavier’s College) on whom has been bestowed a rare honour. Our writers introduce two siblings who belong to the Stolen Generation and two dear friends (and authors) who will appear at the Newcastle Writers Festival next weekend. Cinephile Anne Millard suggests some Easter viewing to enhance the season and “Faith Matters” by Ruth Jacobs provides a window into Judaism for our readers. All this and more is in the April Aurora!
