Hobart TAS, Australia
Summary:A profound experience connecting us deeper to our history
Nipaluna/Hobarts first and only Aboriginal cultural tour. A profound experience connecting us deeper to our history. An experience that is not to be missed!
Takara nipaluna is the first and only Aboriginal tour of nipaluna/Hobart. This walk of nipaluna and its waterfront follows the route taken in 1832 by a group of 40 members of the Aboriginal resistance, as they progressed to the old Government House to negotiate an end to the Black War. takara nipaluna – Walking Hobart – gives voice to the palawa (Tasmanian Aboriginal) perspective and continued presence within this modern city, exposing the layers of history beneath the asphalt.
Created and delivered by palawa/warlpiri woman Nunami Sculthorpe-Green, takara nipaluna is informative, provocative, entertaining and surprising. It will lead you to a richer understanding of this place and of the palawa experience here. A revelatory, truth-telling performance that will resonate with you long after the walk ends.
