we learn constantly . . .

'We learn constantly - teach each other constantly. We teach each other fear and love, how to live and grow, and the value of each others unique perspectives.'

thanks Gennivieve for your very thoughtful message

When I am placing the cups the cups I am often dashing about and very abstractly pulling one out and placing it. But I am very pleased with this place for your cup, as the inclusion declaration of this church perhaps reflects both our fears and how we overcome them with love and respect for others.









About: Message in a Cup


Messages and stories of learning in Footscray are collected and then written onto the insides of one hundred handmade blue cups. The cups are placed in Footscray during BluScray events to be found by people and taken home. The project gives voice to peoples experiences and understandings of learning and shares these ideas with others in the city of Footscray.



Message in a Cup is part of BluScray,  a program of blue-themed arts and cultural events held throughout 2016 to celebrate Victoria University’s Centenary in collaboration with Maribyrnong City Council for the Footscray University Town initiative. Message in a cup was made by the artist Debbie Harman Qadri.
