Physical description
COL side view photo of a roomful of people in a hall. To the right of the frame, four people are standing behind a long rectangular table with a cream valance around it. They are facing an audience (centre and left of the frame) who are standing between rows of plastic chairs. Everyone has their arms outstretched above their heads. Behind the four people at the table, there are three tall windows above a dado wall and a large wooden honour board further back along the wall. There is a slide projector screen between the honour board and the table. There are two vertical freestanding blue and green banners along the wall behind the table. One banner is in the foreground, to the right of the frame. It contains the heading, "Osteoporosis Awareness", followed by words such as "information", "support", "research", "advocacy", and "education".
