Naidoc Week 2020

ACT Community Sector have created an online event for Naidoc Week this year. Artwork by Kristie Peters from Yarrudhamarra Creations.

Whilst official NAIDOC Week celebrations have been deferred, we would still like to bring the community together to commemorate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture during NAIDOC Week via a digital event.

Join us as we celebrate NAIDOC week with a Q&A facilitated by Dan Bourchier from the ABC.

Hear from panelists Matilda House, Billy Tompkins, Nevada Brown, Julie Tongs, Fiona Peterson and TJ Oberleuter.

Tune in for special performances from Larry Brandy, Johnny Huckle and Greg Joseph.

Watch the event via Facebook, YouTube or follow the hashtag: #CanberraNAIDOC

Join in on the fun

We are looking for community members and individuals to create their own videos and/or photographs of this year’s theme for NAIDOC ‘Always Was, Always Will Be’.

Entries will be included as part of our Facebook Live event on the 7th of July at 11am.
