About this Event

In partnership with Fish Lane Arts Precinct, Aboriginal Art Co is bringing creativity to life with a free pop-up Jewellery Making Workshop in the heart of South Brisbane’s cultural precinct — Town Square, Fish Lane.

Drop in, gather beads, emu feathers and native seeds, and let your imagination run wild. Whether you’re crafting beaded earrings, a bracelet, or a statement necklace, the choice is yours. Add something truly special with native gum nuts, beautifully hand-painted by First Nations artists based in Papunya, Ntaria (Hermannsburg), Haasts Bluff (Ikuntji), and Mparntwe (Alice Springs). Available to purchase on the day — a gift from Country, from families and from artists, just for you.
