Engage your senses these school holidays through clay crafts and a walking tour of murals by Whadjuk Noongar artist J.D. Penangke in celebration of NAIDOC Week. The 2024 theme ‘Keep the Fire Burning! Blak, Loud and Proud’ celebrates the vitality and endurance of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
Go on a journey of discovery about Culture and Country through free family art activities exploring the ecology of places around Boorloo (Perth).
Starting at PICA, you can make clay imprints with stamps designed by J.D. Penangke, featuring the plants and animals of Yandilup – the Noongar name of the low-lying wetlands area where PICA is located and the title of her colourful mural at PICA’s western entrance.
From there, you can take a self-guided walking tour of the artist’s public art around the Perth CBD, learning about Country and Language as you go.
Please note the PICA Hub is open Tuesday–Friday, 10am–4pm
