In celebration of NAIDOC Week (8-15 July), this Darling Harbour-based project draws on First Nations languages to engage community, start conversation and link visitors to First Nations Country, language and culture. Poetry inspired by the 2018 NAIDOC theme, 'Because of Her We Can', gave audiences pause for reflection and inspired them to create their own poetry and learnings around First Nations languages.
