My name is Patricia (Trish) McInherny, a traditional descendant of Birpai and Thungutti Countries. I identify strongly with my Aboriginal heritage.
I was born local and live in the Hastings area. Currently residing at Wauchope for the past 13 years, and studying Arts again at the local TAFE – Visual Arts Certificate 3.
I am a mother of 3 children. I have been a practising artist (Dalang GaRumba) for the past 17 years on Birpai Country and have public works in the community.
