This NAIDOC week join us in passing on knowledge, storytelling, music, and movement to the next generation through traditional and contemporary cultural dance workshops at the newly opened Pier Pavilion.

Showcasing both Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander dancing styles with accompanying music, this immersive and interactive experience will take participants on a journey of dance, rhythm, and movement.

Celebrate First Nations cultures through dance and storytelling, connecting to country and water through interpretive movements and recognising and appreciating our native flora and fauna.

These free workshops are suitable for all ages, abilities, and anyone keen to learn, move, dance, and have fun! Please note all children must be accompanied by an adult for the duration of the program.
