Come and create a Sea of Hands for Reconciliation for Reconciliation Week at Kids Art Lab.
Join respected Elder and Bakandji artist Aunty Jeanie Mason, alongside Kirrae Whurrung Eastern Maar Nations artist Ella Clarke, and Yorta Yorta, Gunditjmara art facilitator Jahneya Travis, with support from lead art facilitator Jo Mott, for a fun and educational workshop, designing your message for Reconciliation.
Using scratch board on hand-shaped paper, you will create your own designs and messages, while learning about the meaning and importance of Reconciliation.
In addition, a hands-on colored sand activity using Aboriginal-designed sandpaper, you will explore meanings behind traditional signs and symbols, deepening your understanding of First Nations culture.
A Yarning Circle will be set up alongside the activities, offering a reflective space for you to think about your message on Reconciliation, with artists and facilitators helping you along the way.
The Sea of Hands for Reconciliation will be displayed on the stairs of STACC for the duration of Reconciliation and NAIDOC Weeks.
Free of charge, just drop in.
