Bloss Riverina warmly invites Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander artists to submit an Expression of Interest to create a concept artwork that reflects the journey of families grieving pregnancy and baby loss.

We are seeking a culturally meaningful design that honours the experiences of Riverina families and can be incorporated across our printed materials, promotional items and digital resources.

The selected artist will be awarded a one-time fee of $1,500 for the artwork. This payment entitles Bloss to purchase and hold an exclusive license for a period of four years.

The selected artwork will be chosen by the Bloss Committee in collaboration with a small community panel.

To submit, please email your artwork concept along with a brief explanation of its story and meaning to: riverinabloss@gmail.com

Submissions close: 31 March 2026

We’re so pleased to share that Bloss Riverina is partnering with Little Things Lost, who are based in Griffith, NSW. They provide CarePacks for bereaved families who experience baby or infant loss in the Griffith area. (https://www.facebook.com/groups/292115713707963/)

This partnership brings together two supportive, compassionate communities with a shared purpose, ensuring families impacted by pregnancy, infant and child loss feel seen, supported and never alone.

By working together, we can strengthen connections, increase access to support and continue creating safe spaces for families across the Griffith and surrounding areas to share, heal and feel understood.

We’re grateful for this opportunity to walk alongside one another and look forward to what we can offer our community together.

To everyone who walked alongside us this year, whether by attending an event, donating, or sharing your story, thank you. Your support allows us to continue offering connection, care and hope to families when they need it most.

We know this time of year can bring a mix of emotions. We are holding space for those who have experienced loss and sending gentle thoughts to everyone carrying grief through the festive season. 💜

As we look ahead, we hope 2026 is filled with kindness and continued care for one another.
