By Rick Molinsky June 24, 2016

To celebrate the milestone of 25 years of our partnership with the National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Art Awards, Telstra will be showcasing artworks from past Telstra NATSIAA winners in capital cities across Australia.

Ahead of the installations kicking off this Tuesday (28 June) in Perth, we spoke to curator Rhoda Roberts on what we can expect to see as these open air art sculptures travel around the country, stopping first in Perth (28-30 June) then Brisbane (7-9 July), Melbourne (13-15 July) and Sydney (19-21 July).

The new financial year is in full swing, and for many of us, especially those with families it’s that time of year when we should give serious thought to how to budget smarter without having to compromise the things we love.

With this in mind, we’re offering new customers who join our Telstra family before 4 August 2015, a $200 Welcome Credit on selected Go Mobile plans for the month of July.

To celebrate, we’ve crowdsourced seven great hacks for saving cash from across the team at Telstra.

By Tahlia Antico May 31, 2015

I think we call all agree that actor Jeremy Piven owned the role of Hollywood talent agent, Ari Gold on TV’s Entourage. The comedy series was one of HBO’s highest-rated programs and made Piven, Adrain Grenier and Kevin Dillon stars.

After four long years, and hours on binging of repeats by fans across the globe the big screen version is here.

The best news is the entire original Entourage gang is back, Adrian Grenier, Kevin Connolly, Kevin Dillon, and Jerry Ferrara.

To help you get your Hollywood cool on, Jason “Jabba” Davis chats to the cast in this fun behind-the-scenes video.
