This has been a brutal week for our family. On Monday we unexpectedly, and tragically, lost our darling dad Kevvie. A wonderful, loving, generous and kind man.
We are so grateful we got to call him dad, and grateful our kids - his precious grand kids- have the richest , most wonderful memories of him. All because he loved us so tremendously, most of all his beautiful soul mate, and our courageous mumma, Janet.
What a gift their love has been to witness, and to be encompassed by.
He also had the best ‘isms’.
Kevvies ‘Hate the Haircut’ look was one for the ages, and his iconic infectious belly laugh was so uniquely his own.
We will miss you so much dad. It hasn’t fully sunk in yet. But already we know we will still feel you everywhere we go, because the imprint of your generous love is woven so richly and tangibly in our hearts.
Love your children, Ange, Nat and Jarrod

When we share our stories. When we’re vulnerable together, it breeds so much courage in others.
‘Where We Meet’ had our first official adventure out into the wild as part of @roamgeelong and it was the most beautiful, wild ride.
Thank you to the hundreds of people who came in and drew self portraits and connected. Who shared favourite memories, anonymous secrets and desires. Who bravely sat in the hot seat on The People’s Podcast. Who danced. More silent discos please.
We wish we could do it all again tomorrow.
Special thank you to the incredible women who attended our very first creative workshop earlier in the year. This idea has grown wings and flown somewhere so unexpected and it’s because of your bravery, honesty and willingness to trust our little crew in the beginning.
See you next time wonderful community. Don’t forget to stay brave and bold!!!
With Love from the @thisisyourbookmark crew 💫
We’re busy getting ready for @roamgeelong
ROAM Geelong is where joy, curiosity and imagination come to life for one unmissable day, as Geelong’s cultural heart becomes a playground of art, music, theatre and connection.
You’ll find us on the ground floor of @geelonglibraries
Come and play, share your voice, your thoughts and your creativity in our interactive installation.

We’ve been working on something special for a while now and we feel like it’s about to crack open. So much play. SO MUCH laughter. Kicking off some more exploration in the coming weeks with an exciting immersive experience.
This work is born out of women’s stories, out of play and connection. It aims to tease out all those hidden, wild parts of us we find it difficult to talk about, meeting you at the intersection of what it means to be human. It’s been a beautiful ride and a big learning so far. And we can’t wait to see where it ends up.
Keep your eyes peeled for more info to come @cityofgreatergeelong@artsandculturegeelong@geelonglibraries
Something exciting is brewing 💫

18 years ago our world exploded with the arrival of our beautiful Molly Pea. After a giving a us a little fright with a slightly quiet entry into the world she opened her lungs and let out the most perfect cry to let us know she was here. Each day since she has shared with us with her song. And whether it’s spoken or sung it’s expressed with such authenticity and honesty. It is strong and it is beautiful in all of its shades of love, humour, frustration, sadness, kindness, independence and joy.
We love you so deeply @_molly.gleeson_
We are so proud of who you are and how you move through this world. Happy 18th my love. Here’s to celebrating you. 💖
Such a special and fun night sharing the stage with these wonders as part of the gala opening night for the incredible new @geelongartscentre
which is beyond AMAZING. Congrats to the whole GAC team who have worked so tirelessly to see it realised and open. It’s immense and WONDROUS 🧡
