NAIDOC Coolamon Workshop

Workshop Description

• Step into a women‑only creative space where culture, connection, and self‑expression come alive.

• Guided by the tradition of the coolamon — an Aboriginal tool carried by women — this workshop invites you to shape your own clay coolamons using symbols, stories, and imagery that speak to resilience and feminine strength.

• Enjoy ambient music, perfect for friends, sisters, aunties, or meeting new women in a safe, uplifting environment.

• What makes this experience truly unique is the act of re‑gifting: the two coolamons you create will be gifted forward to another woman attending the next workshop, made with intention and an open heart.

• You’ll then choose two coolamons crafted by women before you, painting them in shimmering gold metallic tones before sealing them — a beautiful exchange of creativity, story, and sisterhood.
