NAIDOC Community Workshops
Celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture with these free daily lunchtime workshops.
Overview
The Royal Botanic Garden Sydney is celebrating this year's NAIDOC Week theme of 'Voice. Treaty. Truth.' with a program of daily (and free!) lunchtime workshops throughout the week. also the perfect excuse to take your full lunch break and take advantage of the sunny forecast ahead while celebrating Aboriginal culture.
On Monday you'll be able to learn a few tips on traditional weaving, while Tuesday will get you up and moving at a music and dance workshop. On Wednesday you can learn a bit about traditional tools and weapon, and Thursday will let you get a bit dirty with ochre (and see how it's used with traditional dance). Finish up on Friday with an art class on the Palace Garden Gate lawn just off Macquarie Street.
You don't have to book in for the workshops — just rock up and join in. If you work in the city, they're a great (and free) way to get involved in NAIDOC Week, celebrate the history, achievements and diverse culture of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, and learn something new. Plus, the forecast is looking good for this week.
The workshops will run from midday until 1pm each day this week.
