From rubies’ in Glenn Annie Gorge and allu­vial gold at Arl­tun­ga to the first trig points on Trig Hill, Mt Gillen and Mt Johns, the eight bench­es help to paint a pic­ture of ear­li­er set­tler pres­ence and the mea­sur­ing and mak­ing of the town we know today. The bench­es were pro­duced through a col­lab­o­ra­tion between the Cen­tre for Appro­pri­ate Tech­nol­o­gy Ltd. and Elli­at Rich to man­u­fac­ture fur­ni­ture that has a Cen­tral Aus­tralian her­itage, aes­thet­ic and prove­nance. This art­work was com­mis­sioned by Alice Springs Town Council.
