    We acknowledge the Dharug people as the traditional owners on whose unceded land this event will take place. This always was, always will be Aboriginal Land. We acknowledge elders past, present and emerging and recognise and respect their continued connection and care for this sacred land through their culture and customs

The day will feature music performances by multidisciplinary artists, a dance cypher, banner painting, badge making, beading workshops, henna as well as an open mic.

    We will also be showcasing amazing works from mural artists, visual artists, photographers, film makers & crocheters who have donated their works to be part of the raffle and silent auction.
