Footsteps: First Nations Art Tour

Join us for a relaxed lunchtime stroll through South Brisbane's lively Fish Lane, where striking First Nations artworks animate the streets with stories of culture, history, and contemporary expression.

The tour begins in Town Square, Fish Lane with an invitation to enjoy a warm cup of lemon myrtle tea, before winding through around 5 - 8 nearby public art sites, each just a few minutes’ walk apart. We’ll conclude at Judy Watson’s Tow Row sculpture at the entrance of the Gallery of Modern Art.

Along the way, you’ll gain insight into the cultural significance of the artworks and the creative voices behind them, all set within the heart of South Brisbane’s cultural precinct.

This family-friendly experience is suitable for all ages, with brief stops and easy walking distances throughout.

Date: Friday, 27 March
Time: 12.30–1.30pm (please arrive on time, as the tour departs promptly at 12.30pm)
Meeting Point: Town Square, Fish Lane
End Point: Tow Row sculpture, Gallery of Modern Art.

In addition to a deeper appreciation of Fish Lane’s cultural art and stories, all participants will receive a gift bag featuring native-infused treats, a magnet, and a keychain.

These walking tours run on the last Friday of each month and offer a welcoming, informal way to connect, learn, and explore the city through art.
