We work together with community participants to create vibrant, creative interpretations of cultural knowledge and support opportunities for communities to share selected works with the wider public.

Our Programs

Our programs are based on learning ‘Both Ways’ – Elder and child, Indigenous and non-Indigenous, speaking and listening, traditional and modern, oral storytelling and digital storytelling.

Create programs

CREATE programs build creative and digital media skills, stories and culture in community participants. Returning to Country lies at the heart of all programs.
