Dahl’wah
A standalone space for self-guided hands-on activities and for quiet learning
Our vision is to share First Nations content and perspectives to wider audience groups, especially families, children and young people.
The space has four stations with iPads and audio where visitors can watch and listen to D’harawal Saltwater Knowledge Keeper, Shannon Foster providing a First Nation’s perspective of the interpretation within the space.
The programs and activations delivered in this space will be First Nations led and work closely with First Nations facilitators, artists, cultural knowledge holders and other experts. These creatives will deliver scheduled and drop-in workshops and other activities as well as self-guided activations which can be experienced by visitors at their own pace.
