BUSH BABIES: HONOURING OUR NOONGAR ELDERS<br />

FREE<br />

ARTS<br />

This portrait exhibition coordinated<br />

by Community Arts Network WA<br />

(CAN WA) celebrates the strength<br />

and resilience of 16 Noongar<br />

elders from across the Wheatbelt.<br />

The elders are part of CAN WA’s<br />

Bush Babies community arts<br />

project, which captures the stories<br />

of Noongar babies who were born<br />

at a time when Aboriginal people<br />

were subject to tight government<br />

controls and not<br />

permitted to live<br />

in towns or cities.<br />

These stories provide an insight into<br />

a part of our nation’s history that<br />

often goes unheard or untold.<br />
