Giinagay, guudji yiigu and welcome

We're writing a new chapter for our culture, together

We help drive change through innovative, arts and culture based programs designed for the Gumbaynggirr, Dunghutti, Biripi and Worimi Aboriginal communities across the Mid North Coast of NSW

Giinagay (Gumbaynggirr) and Guudji Yiigu (Gathang) means welcome

In your words..

"Projects like these directly, positively and quite profoundly enable the school to lift levels of participation and retention"

Mick Eller – Kempsey High School

"Aboriginal boys who are experiencing problems need to be able to practice their culture, spend time with Elders and take part in cultural practices that are fun"

Uncle Fred Kelly

"I reckon dancing can get you places and can get you out of trouble. You learn more about your culture from dancing and what your culture is about"

Narina Ferguson – youth participant
