This exhibition is to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Mambo. Mambo is such an iconic brand, immediately recognisable to Australians. Well known for their distinctive designs on t-shirts and clothing, Mambo is actually much more than that. Posters, art works, statuary and surfboards make for a colourful, fun exhibition.

You certainly did put your time to good use!
Mambo was so big in my teen years. I can't believe it's 30 yrs old. That must mean that I am....oh no!!!!
What a fun exhibit. I have never heard of Mambo before. PS there are more food photos up.
This was definitely a fun exhibit! Who knew that surfboards could be so enticing? Thanks for sharing...and for visiting my blog.
Those are fun pics! The Hat In The Cat cracked me up!
Love your colorful photos. What a fun exhibit! Everything is so original and delightful. The sofa surfboard gave me a laugh, as did the take-offs on The Cat in the Hat and Mad Magazine. Clever!
Thank you for leaving a comment on my blog today.

You always seem to find the most interesting exhibitions. I had not seen or heard about Mambo in many years. They need to expand and sell over here in the US as they would probably do quite well. I love the photos and enjoyed seeing the different items they had.
