UNTOLD Naarm: Street Walk and Talk

Event description

The inaugural UNTOLD Naarm includes the following program:

• Guided Street Walk and Talk – 12.00pm

For many Indigenous residents of Naarm, Gertrude Street has always held special meaning. Now home to cool culture; restaurants, bars and boutiques, this walk will highlight and reconnect with First Nations culture, activism and place.

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.
