Shaping Our Future Through Cultural & Artistic Storytelling
Arts, Music, Dance and Storytelling are powerful tools for education and creating social change. By opening cross-cultural artistic dialogue, our programs aim to cultivate respect, understanding and a greater sense of belonging for all members in the communities we serve.
Our programs are run by a team of talented and experienced artists, dancers and musicians from Culturally and Linguistically Diverse backgrounds. Throughout our interactive School programs and workshops, the role of our Cultural Educators is to share traditional songs, dances, visual arts and stories.
Participants are encouraged to listen, learn and participate in activities that have been designed especially for meaningful engagement. Our sessions cover a broad range of topics such as Sustainability and Connection to the Land, Interpersonal Communication and Emotional Awareness, Drumming and Dance, Working Together, Partnerships and Everyone Belongs.
Australia is a vibrant, multicultural country. We are home to the world’s oldest continuous cultures, as well as Australians who identify with more than 270 ancestries. Our rich cultural diversity is one of our greatest strengths.
