Acknowledgement of Country
We acknowledge the Aboriginal people of what is now called New South Wales and value
their ongoing connections to country, community and culture that have existed across
millennia.
We celebrate through these connections, Aboriginal cultural strength, resilience and
contemporary creativity.
We respect the role that Aboriginal creatives play in contribution to a deeper sense of
identity and place through sharing knowledge, skills and stories and the important role that
Aboriginal Elders are in guiding this process.
