Historical information

One of the many events held during National Arthritis Week in 2004 was a Tai Chi exercise demonstration at Federation Square in Melbourne. In this photo, four Tai Chi instructors are demonstrating some of the exercises under a large electronic advertising billboard on the side of one of the buildings in the square. The billboard was commissioned to promote the "Tai Chi for Arthritis" campaign. The event is featured in a round up of the National Arthritis Week 2004 events on pages 12-13 of the Vol 17 issue 2, Winter 2004 edition of the Arthritis Foundation of Victoria's quarterly magazine, Update.
