The inaugural UNTOLD Naarm includes the following talks:

LOCAL MOB – PROTEST

Conversation – 3pm

Keynote Next Gen Response – 4pm

From board rooms to street rallies, First Nations people have always been pushed to fight vigorously for their rights. Join us for a conversation with some of the familiar faces in those board rooms and at those rallies to discuss what’s been on their agendas lately.

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.
