Creating culturally respectful and welcoming spaces
Event description
Are you a Builder, Interior Designer or Architect - or someone who gets involved with fit-outs and furnishings for your office? Are you keen to improve your professional practice regarding culturally safe and welcoming spaces?
Ochre Dawn is a Supply Nation certified branding and marketing agency, specialising in the engagement of First Nations artists and communities on commercial projects. We are hosting a highly engaging and informative in-person seminar, during which we will be covering the following:
- How do you connect with First Nations artists, Elders and Traditional Owner groups for artwork, language and design?
- How do you take traditional First Nations principles and lessons into our modern design practice?
- When is it appropriate to use First Nations imagery & language? And how do you know it is authentic?
- Some common mistakes and how to avoid them.
- What are Reconciliation Action Plans (RAPs) and should you have one if you work with First Nations artwork and communities?
This is a genuine learning opportunity (with practical take aways on offer) that will not only contribute to reconciliation commitments, but improve practices and professionalism on many levels.
