LOCAL blokes have put their souls on display in a week focusing on men’s health and wellbeing.
Blokes Week kicked off in Geelong on Monday with the launch of an exhibition “exploring and celebrating male identity” at Courthouse ARTS.
The organisers said the Blokes Spaces and Places exhibition featured a collection of paintings, articles and photos devoted to blokey subject matter.
The exhibition was one of a range of male-orientated events and activities around the region for Blokes Week, covering everything from health checks to music workshops and a footy night.
The schedule concludes with a Blokes Day Out Festival on Geelong’s waterfront this Sunday.
Festival spokesperson Peter Kelly said Blokes Week filled “a gap” in highlighting events and activities available to enhance men’s health and wellbeing.
More information about the festival and other Blokes Week activities is available at barwonhealth.org.au.
