CoPP | Indigenous cultural experience: Ngargee to Nerm | Sunday 21 March 2021 | meet 9.45am

[Edited extract from public address]

Join this Indigenous cultural experience to welcome newly arrived migrants to the City of Port Phillip.

Cultural Diversity Week (21-28 March 2021) brings together Victorians from all walks of life to promote harmony and celebrate the many cultures that make our state so vibrant.

Come and join Dean Stewart Aboriginal Tours and Education Melbourne for an inspiring learning experience about our Aboriginal culture, our country and our connections. This experience will introduce you to Port Phillip’s First Peoples history through significant sites and landmarks located within the municipality. You will meet one of the longest living beings in Melbourne - the centuries old River Red Gum tree - an ancient entity thriving only feet from one of the area’s busiest traffic intersections. Through understanding the diversities in Australia between landscape and people, you will develop awareness, a sense of belonging and a sense of place. Please come and continue the Ngargee on this ancient land.

Where: Participants will meet on the corner of Fitzroy Street and St Kilda Road, St Kilda at 9.45 am
Cost: FREE of charge, bookings are essential. Interpreters available upon request.
