Barrambin (aka Victoria Park) holds deep cultural and spiritual significance to the First Nations Yuggera and Turrbal peoples. This area was a campground and meeting place for corroborees, dancing, hunting and gathering, and a place for First Nations people from neighbouring regions to visit and stay.
Join us December 6th, to expand truth telling as we collectively build our understanding of First Nations culture and heritage. Connecting past with present to inspire a shared future of Barrambin, with First Nations justice at the heart.
This event comes as the State government begins months of investigative drilling on this sacred land for the proposed Olympic Stadium and National Aquatic Centre.
