City Precinct, in collaboration with the Koori Heritage Trust, welcome you to join their Aboriginal Walk on Thursday 2nd of March.

WOMINJEKA – WELCOME

Located in the cultural heart of Narrm (Melbourne) at Federation Square by the banks of the Birrarung Marr (River of Mists – Yarra River), the Koorie Heritage Trust is a not for profit First Nations owned and managed arts and cultural organisation providing opportunities for all people to learn, connect and re-connect with the rich living cultural heritage of Aboriginal Victoria.

The Birrarung Wilam Aboriginal Walking Tour takes you through the Koorie Heritage Trust, Federation Square and down to the Birrarung Wilam (Common Ground) Aboriginal art installations, experiencing the Aboriginal history of the Birrarung Marr (Beside the River of Mists) and Aboriginal Peoples of the Kulin Nation.

With one of the experienced Koorie guides, you will learn how the land on which Melbourne is located has changed over time and about the significance of the Birrarung Wilam to the local Kulin peoples. You will gain a deeper and more meaningful understanding of this incredible location; an important gathering place for the Kulin Nation and one of Melbourne's most popular meeting hubs.

Please meet at Yarra Building at Federation Square at 12:50pm for a 1pm start.

Hope to see you there!
