Aboriginal Culture and Art Workshops

Aboriginal Culture and Art Workshops
Australian Aboriginal Culture and Art Workshops create team building programs to help your organisation, worksforce, students or event participants gain understanding and acceptance of the traditional custodians of Australia. And the incredible culture that has sustained the country's first occupants for thousands of years. Our workshops are more than just a team building excersize. Our workshops enhance your knowledge of aboriginal culture and brings you closer to this ancient land.

Our Aboriginal Culture and Art Workshop faciliator's provide inclusive, educational and fun programs that bring your team together.

Be it our Art on Canvas workshop or the Paint Your Own Boomerang workshop, we will teach you the meanings of aboriginal symbols and explain story-lines on significant places and the creation before time. There will be plenty of story telling, maybe some language and plenty of suprises to keep your team entertained.
 
We are a highly experienced team with a combined 50 years experience delivering aboriginal culture and art workshops in the corporate, government, not for profit, school and public events sectors. We proudly hold deadly relationships with Aboriginal and Tores Strait Islander traditional owners from mobs across Australia including Adelaide (Kaurna), Melbourne (Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung), Brisbane (Turrbal and Yuggera), Sydney (Gadigal and Dhurag), Canberra (Ngambri and Ngunnawal), Perth (Whadjuk and Noongar) and many regional centres.

We can work with small groups through to major public events and have created many dreaming on Canvas and Boomerangs with thousands of participants. No event or group is too big or too small for our workshops.

We bring our Aboriginal Cultural Immersions to you. Your office, your school, your conference, convention or sporting event.

If you do not have a venue of your own, we also have local knowledge and access to amazing venues and facilities and spaces available for hire for incredible prices in cities across the country.

We work with Australian and International groups traveling through and international cruise ships in ports across Australia and have shared thousands of aboriginal cultural immersions to the public and private sectors.

Our Culturre workshops teach about country, weaponary and artefacts along with the story of aboriginal creation before time and the ancestral beings. Learn about the importance of the waterways, land marks, native animals, food sources and ancient rituals passed down for genertations.

Reconciliation Week

The National Reconciliation Week, held the week of 27 May - 3 June with the theme for 2024, Now More Than Ever, is a reminder to all of us that no matter what, the fight for justice and the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people will and must continue.

There have been many moments in Australia’s reconciliation journey that make us want to turn away. But when things are divisive, the worst thing we can do is disengage or disconnect.
