Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people should be aware that this exhibition contains the names of people who have passed away.
In a collaboration between the University Library and Wirltu Yarlu Aboriginal Education, the artworks on display have been selected by our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander staff and students. Artworks chosen resonate with each person鈥檚 life experiences, culture, and worldview.
Through this exhibition we invite everyone to participate in (8-15 November 2020) an annual event celebrating聽the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples.
