UNTOLD Naarm: Bridging Now to Next

Event description

The inaugural UNTOLD Naarm includes the following talks:

BRIDGING NOW TO NEXT

• Conversation – Thursday 22nd May, 4.30pm

Focussing on the theme Bridging Now to Next, this conversation will look at the ongoing connection between past, present and future. At a time of uncertainty on the reconciliation journey, this talk will urge us all to look ahead and continue the push forward as past lessons guide us.

UNTOLD Naarm is an established talk series that brings together First Nations communities, creatives and visual artists from across Australia, in a vibrant and accessible forum at Agency’s HQ in Naarm/Melbourne.

Join Agency in 2025, on the lands of the Wurundjeri people for, UNTOLD Naarm – a series designed to prioritise the stories of local custodians and offer greater connection with visiting First Nations artists, creatives and communities.

The 2025 program is, metaphorically, a ‘housewarming’, announcing and inviting local mob to join with Agency to tell their stories, explore their histories and share knowledge with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples from across the county.

We are excited to open the Agency Naarm space up over 2025 and fill it with great people, great conversations and make even better memories. It’s time to warm the house.

This program is designed for the Naarm community and visitors by Agency’s wonderful Leila Gurruwiwi.
