Community Mourns John Stringer's Passing

The gay community, the arts community and the Perth community lost a special person with the sudden passing of John Stringer on Tuesday the 13th November. John was best known as the Curator of the Kerry Stokes Art Collection – a job he loved. His enthusiasm for living life to the full was inspirational. Despite a very busy international career John was legendary for his generosity to everybody, his championing of the arts within Australia and overseas and his gentle respect for all people. His quiet sense of humour belied a strong commitment to Northbridge, the place he made his home, to his family and to fostering artists in Perth.
