Join our Yarn Strong Sista Aboriginal Storyteller, Annette Sax, in a workshop to gain insight into Victorian Aboriginal Culture.
About this Event

Annette will be reading the contemporary story Bartja and Mayila, written by Aunty Dr Sue Atkinson, Yorta Yorta Author, and illustrated by Annette Sax Taungurung artist.

When Bartja’s best friend Mayila plans to leave the forest they live in to visit the ocean, Bartja wants to find her the perfect parting gift. With some advice from Uncle Ambrose and the forest animals, Bartja creates a gift that Mayila will treasure.

Following the storytelling session, Annette will lead an Aboriginal art experience, providing a hands-on opportunity to engage with rich cultural tradition. Suitable for both children and families, this event promises an immersive and educational experience for all attendees.

Participants are invited to bring natural resources to enrich our creative art experience.
