NAIDOC Week at Rouse Hill Estate

The Next Generation: Strength, Vision and Legacy. Celebrate First Nations cultures on Dharug Country at Rouse Hill Estate. NAIDOC Week is a time to celebrate First Nations cultures, history and achievements. This year's theme, The Next Generation: Strength, Vision and Legacy, celebrates not only the achievements of the past but the bright future ahead, empowered by the strength of young leaders, the vision of communities, and the legacy of ancestors. Museums of History NSW is joining forces with Muru Mittigar Aboriginal Cultural and Education Centre to bring you a day of fun activities for the whole family to enjoy. The day will begin with a Welcome to Country and Smoking Ceremony followed by dance performances and workshops. Join elders in the yarning circle and discover more than a century of knowledge, culture and strength. Listen to didgeridoo performances and storytelling or learn weaving techniques. See how traditional tools are made, and drop in to Muru Mittigar to learn how to throw a boomerang, make art, or check out Aboriginal art and artefacts while listening to some great yarns. Light refreshments and food available. Program coming soon.
