Let your imagination run wild at these hands-on Indigenous craft workshops and storytelling sessions. Be inspired by stories of the Wurundjeri and other local Aboriginal communities, then create your own animals and creatures from Dreaming stories. Suitable for children 3 to 12 years.
Joy Wandin Murphy and Annette Sax of Yarn Strong Sista
The Possum Hunt' puppet show will be part of this session. This story, about an Aboriginal Elder, Aunty Iris Lovett-Gardiner from the Gunditjmara people, is about Aunty Iris's childhood adventure with her brother Charlie. The contemporary story is performed by Annette Sax, Taungurong woman, with permission from Aunty Iris. Over the years Annette has shared this story with thousands of Victorian children across the State.
